LEXINGTON: Kentucky has fielded pro-style offenses under the direction of NFL veterans Rich Scangarello (2022) and Liam Coen (2021 and 2023) for the last three seasons.
Bush Hamdan, the new offensive coordinator, was the quarterback for the Atlanta Falcons in 2017 and ran the Kyle Shanahan scheme. UK has not quite abandoned its pro-style approach, but it has structured its system after the previous three seasons. Fans can anticipate a more “college friendly” offensive from the Wildcats come fall 2024.
During his first press conference on Thursday, Hamdan described his offensive scheme as “been to the NFL, done the NFL thing.” “I really felt as I’ve made it as college friendly as we can,” he said.
That’s the main objective. This is the source of the pro-style foundation: the schemes that make the pass look like the run and everything look the same. However, we need to figure out a way to simplify it for these players, some of whom will be running this offense in as little as two or three weeks, so we need them to be able to play quickly and cohesively.
