I am definitely Special Needs for reading this thread!!!

You do know that he was on a slant..... just saying

Huh??? Isn't that being innovative and creative? Dabo Swinney / Ryan Day / Lincoln Riley - are they gimmicky??? Or am I just missing the boat here? Is Nick Saban a gimmick coach now - he use to run a traditional power run offense and now he runs more of power spread that is very creative?

Please explain.......... What exactly is a gimmick offense? Defense? People throw this term out all the time so I want to know what that is so I can look for it. Can you give examples of teams that run these Offenses and Defenses?

I feel like we have been saving our playbook for about 10 years now....

I think he looks a little slow is because he is a long strider. I think he probably has a good top end. When you look for a good DB you have to look for really fluid hips.... When you look for inside LB they have to have excellent lateral quickness and good hips & hands (pop). It is a...

When we are talking about transcripts it is not as black and white as some may think. It is not as simple as he failed a class he can take a summer course and he will be eligible. Each team gets a few exceptions each year (I think it is 4 by NCAA rules). What does that mean.... Kids can be...

I agree - that sword cuts both ways. I think I probably have an over simplistic view of recruiting. I would find a bunch of guys that are really good at football then out of those guys I would recruit the best body. #1 can play #2 bigger, faster, stronger. #3 personality traits also has to...

YES!!! The kid is really good at football!!! It is to easy to get caught up in numbers. Now I know size and speed count but it cant be everything. Actually being good at the game has to count too. I think kids like Bain are the ones who end up being 4th or 5th rounders and they somehow end...

Their rankings seem very odd. They are all over the place. I am not convinced it is an ax to grind against Miami - at this point I just feel they are really bad at their job.

Maybe switch Oregon and WV - and I feel like Boise State might have a legit argument of being in the Pac-16. Maybe a better argument than someone like Cincy.

Dam - I have heard the term "grassy" in a while! That brings back some memories.

Kansas State "Wildcat" is used by over a 100 different High schools through out the US. It seemed like Bill Snyder did not care - the new regime seems like they do but it is so widespread.....

I think it is right at 700k for the active roster now.

I think we would all like to think that your statement is true - but our previous history made a lot of people nervous about our Admin / BOT doing the right thing. Even in the end it seemed like there were plenty of Manny supporters (including BOT members) and a win over FSU sure seemed like it...

I hear a lot of posters rip Ponce as an OC because of his scheme - can / would anybody like elaborate a little about what is wrong with his scheme that make him so bad?

Dang - apparently I am having a hard time keeping up.

We don't know that he is going to be worse. It is going to be different but not necessarily worse. Being able to run the ball might allow TVD to face defenses not solely set on stopping the pass. I personally like more of an air it out offense - But I like winning even more than any style of...

Yes you did - might reading comprehension may need a little tune up:oops:

I totally get what you are saying but yes they do pin themselves deep and practice getting out - or at least they should. Same as you practice goal line O from inside the 2 / 5 / 10 / 20. Most quality teams practice situational football a lot more than just line up and scrimmage. 3rd & short...
