This is a very good article. I'm always amazed at the House that Mumme built - Leach (HC TTech), Hatcher (HC Valdosta and, GVSt right?), Morris (HC Ky, Baylor, now?), and Franklin (now OC at Auburn, and of course, the Tony Franklin of, well, Tony Franklin fame). Literally they had five offensive coaches (Mumme QBs, Franklin RBs, Hatcher TEs/QBs, Leach WRs, and Morris OL) and within 10 years each has been or is a HC, except for Franklin who just landed one of the most plum jobs.
Especially since at the time all five (including Mumme) were unknown D-II coach types. Franklin was a HS coach. Anyway, thanks again.

Well I am not sure when Morriss joined the staff but what is even more so impressive is that
Leach started with Mumme in Iowa. They coached Hatcher and then he joined them (though at some point he coached Cullpepper). Franklin helped get Mumme the job at KY and beleive he was coaching HS at Calloway County. I think the core of that group had been workign together for a good deal fo time working up from Div III (I think) to SEC to where they all are now.
One of the biggest surprises to me is Franklin. In the short time he was with Mumme he learned the offense and now is considered one of the leading people when it comes to it. Sorta a strange rise through the coaching ranks. Mumme has some what fallen off the map. I know he is a HC but it is strange seeing the guy that brought it together and where he is at compared to Leach, Franklin and even Hatcher.
On the article, it is a great little primer for the offense. IF nothing esle it stresses how simple they wanted to keep things. Simple and repeatable. Everything translates to the field. Even if you do not run the Air Raid offense (which I beleive the term came from Mumme's run at KY) you can take some very important points from the article. Simple and repeatable

If you do those drill on a daily basis there is no way you can not get better in the passing game.
