Bill Wagner: Struggling Navy offense might as well turn to freshman quarterback Xavier Arline | COMMENTARY

I’ve given up on seeing Navy properly execute the read triple-option in 2020.

Eight games into the season, one must conclude that what we have seen so far is what we’ll continue to get.

The Midshipmen were just as dysfunctional during Saturday’s 10-7 loss to Memphis as they were throughout a 55-3 blowout by BYU in the season opener.

Navy’s offensive coaching staff had a month to fix the problems plaguing the offense, and to describe the results as disappointing would be a massive understatement.

Considering that the braintrust consisting of coach Ken Niumatalolo, offensive coordinator Ivin Jasper and running game coordinator Ashley Ingram has been fine-tuning the unit for almost three months since, Saturday’s night showing was mind-boggling.
