I don't really see the St. X faithfuls and students rallying around that offense KCD runs. Unfortunately, even with all the success it has brought in 1A, it could definitely become tough to get kids interested to come out comparatively to Trinity's offense right down the road. 

What offense do they run?

Hearing rumors that 1st year Carroll Head Coach applied for Western Hills. Anyone confirm this?

They only avg 7.5 pass attempts per game so some type of primarily running offense.

I believe they have run more spread passing game in the past, but the triple option fit their current personnel better and they have done a super job with it. 

Their DC, Ed Long, is an old Mercer Co. boy. He married Brad Matherly’s sister. Brad was an excellent QB @ Harrodsburg High… and my neighbor growing up. 

Caden Long is Ed’s son… KCD QB & a 4th & 40 QB. 

I would not get real hung up on what a coach runs on offense. The good ones adjust to their personnel / tweak their offense to fit the guys they have.

Wing T / Veer .... started running it a couple years ago and Jones has said at a clinic that he fell in love with it. Great coach though, don't get me wrong.

Some might argue that X hasn't been the same since they got "tired" of  the veer.

Had you heard some rumors? Or were you just aware of the fact that he was eligible for full state pension in addition to the St. X job coming open?

Heard the rumors before the season started.  But I think they were just assumed through association.  Male coach getting his public school years in at the same time a rival private HC was stepping down.  Then heard Haddix about 5 or 6 weeks ago so, who knows.  

Interesting times!!!

just reposting for everyone who may have not read your last paragraph…?

I’m not knocking their offense at all. The way the original poster stated it made me feel like they had watched the offense before. 
 

For some reason I thought they were a single wing team. 
 

Plenty of teams are very successful with triple option and run heavy offenses. Basing ideas off the number of pass attempts a game is flawed. 
 

It looks like they are a Flexbone team now.

Actually it's not good for the program that he just coached if he leaves after 1 season.  This would be the 4th coach that the upcoming seniors have had in 4 years if he leaves.

Carroll has some really good kids returning.
