Dan Patrick interviewed Mike Leach the other day. He asked him what the next offensive innovation would be. Leach said in effect, what goes around comes around. "Nobody ever stopped the wishbone when it was executed well."


The problem is recruiting athletes to play in a system like that

If you could stock and old school system like that with elite talent you could probably destroy everyone because they aren't prepared for that type of offense

This. Look at what Paul Johnson did his firat few years with Chan Gailey's mediocre recruits.

But kids (even the kind of kids who might go to Georgia Tech) don't want to play in a system they don't think will get them to the NFL.

The fact that service academies aren't beaten like stepchildren EVERY week is proof of what Leach is saying. Good scheme is always good
