The first-year offensive coordinator so far has led an offense that has underwhelmed with an average of 14 points in the last two games.
Glenn Thomas understands the growing pressure of revitalizing Arizona State football’s offense.
“I don’t think you can get totally eschewed by that. At the end of the day, you have to do what you do... You have to do what you have to do, whether it be huddle or throw the ball, run the ball, play action, whatever the case may be, and adjust,” Thomas said. Jones’ dual threat capabilities were hampered by Utah’s defensive line, pushing him back to losing 26 yards on 11 attempts. However, the thought of benching him during the game was not an option for interim head coach Shaun Aguano.
Instead, it was Trenton Bourguet who threw a touchdown pass to Elijhah Badger while working on red zone offense on Wednesday.
