This is not the type of "west coast" offense we want Narduzzi to find out about. please delete

This is close to how Aliquippa won for many years. Never passes and never kicked extra points or Field goals, but still rampaged.

Ironic isn’t it that the most famous football playing former resident of Granada Hills is John Elway. Of course, this school didn’t exist back when he was playing high school ball.

So they're McKeesport West.

Belle Vernon completed one pass for two yards last week in their win. This is notable because you'd think at some point they'd get lucky or run a swing pass.

Double Wing, not flexbone. But good for them. I'd like to see a team have 0 running plays for year as well. And another who only has two plays (perhaps numbered "1" and "2".)

I think we have found Pitt's next OC.

It didn't? From the linked article:

Granada Hills is the alma mater of legendary NFL quarterback John Elway.

In any event, I guess the coach figured the next John Elway wasn't walking through the door.

Granada Hills HS where Elway went doesn’t exist. There were two high schools in Granada Hills. John F Kennedy HS is only about 8 blocks away to the east. There is another high school, Chatsworth, which is only about 10 blocks to the west. So, they closed Granada Hills and converted it into a charter HS. It draws students from Granada Hills, Chatsworth, Northridge and other parts of the northern San Fernando Valley. They did that everywhere in LA where there were two or three high schools close together. So, it’s in the same buildings on the same campus as Elway attended, but it’s a different school. The article technically is wrong, but it’s a nice story line for the writer.

Same buildings, same campus, same name, totally different schools. Got it.

I know right? BETHEL PARK built a new building so it's not bethel park anymore. Lololol
