Did Aaron Roderick Call Plays Last Year? Zach Wilson Seems to Insinuate So

BYU promoted Aaron Roderick to offensive coordinator in early January after former OC Jeff Grimes left to Baylor. Roderick was passing game game coordinator and QB coach for three seasons from 2018-2020.

Some have speculated that Roderick took over playing calling duties from Grimes at some point during their three years together. This has never been confirmed and the staff always said that offensive game planning was a collaborative effort. Zach Wilson, however, seemed to confirm that Roderick — not Grimes — called plays last season.

During a press conference Saturday night after the Jets scrimmage, a reporter asked Wilson if he had ever received play calls from the booth.
