re: Coach O on offensive plays in practice

quote:

---

Did anyone hear that he said we went from running 80 plays in practice to 20 plays this week?

---

he talked a lot last night about shortening practice on the field and more in the meeting rooms. Something he learned from Pete Carrol and Jimmie Hohnson.

He also talked about the plan each week it that each day is a theme. Monday is Truth day. Work on mistakes from past game. I did not catch the remaining days themes.

I was surprised last night in other discussions that some Tiger pundits who are local to the program described Miles as a dinosaur for practice regimen. He tended to grind out and overrun practices and tended to burn out the players and coaches which some contribute his tendency for late season swoons.
