It would perhaps be a daunting first season for Tim Morrison as the man who coordinates and calls South Dakota's offense if senior quarterback Aidan Bouman decided not to return.
Not that Morrison wouldn't be up for the task. He was tight ends coach on a pair of USD playoff teams the last two seasons, a group which included All-American and current Pittsburgh Steeler J.J. Galbreath. Prior to that, Morrison spent seven collective seasons as a Div. II offensive coordinator at Upper Iowa and Grand Valley State.
But in his D1 debut, Morrison will have the best returning FCS quarterback (of any team expected to contend for a national title) at his disposal, plus All-American running back Charles Pierre, Jr., rated by some as the nation's best FCS running back.
This should alleviate concerns about an offensive line that lost three key starters to the transfer portal and returns just one starter in 2025.
So, how will Morrison approach offense, especially with a new head coach in former USD defensive coordinator Travis Johansen, who elevated Morrison? Will the Yotes be more pedal-to-the-medal with a veteran QB that possesses a cannon arm?
Unlike some OC's, Morrison is willing to give a deep dive into his specific philosophies and how it applies to this team. He's also quick and not shy about revealing his favorite happy hour drink of choice!
