Man I would love to see it.

Nah, the Flying V is a real possibility though.

you people do realize that florida essentially ran the wing t when tebow was there?

The wing-t is better served for smaller fast lineman.
LSU has very big lineman made for power formations.
You don't start a scheme based off skill players, you base it off the ability in the trenches.

That's not true. You don't have any friends.

Really it was his mom, and she wasn't at Barnes and Noble. She's a librarian and saw Les at the library reading it.

shotgun snap, misdirection, keeping defenses guessing, etc.

they did more than just run the option though.
like you said, traps, misdirection, lots of pulling.
it was a shotgun wing t pretty much.
not saying lsu should run it but we wouldn't be going back in time 40 years if we did

In a world with a Flux Capacitor-equipped DeLorean capable of taking you back to 1958? Sure.

If LSU was a 7th/8th grade team sure....

I think we may also try this new fangled thing called the forward pass! What will they think up next?!?!

People scoff, but the offense Urban Meyer ran at Florida wasn't that far removed from the old school single-wing/wishbone offenses.
They operate out of the shotgun and spread the LOS more, but the premise of an extra blocker or two remains the same.

Ah. Premature postage.
But you were right on
Posted on 1/8/14 at 6:26 pm to LSUFANinIL
this is easiest offense to sniff out if you're a dlineman. no.
Posted on 1/8/14 at 8:39 pm to Rayvegas1484
What you are talking about is the old Notre Dame Box, A hard offense to defend against.

Your exactly right. I read a story a few years ago when Urban was still at Florida and he talked in the article about how for the most part it is based off of the wing-T but ran from the shotgun. I am a big fan of the wing-T at the high school level. In college? no.

We should run split tailbacks.
