I am kidding of course..

But I don't think you guys understand how the option is suppose to work. Thats why you keep calling it the Wishbone. Its alot more than lining up in the wishbone and running plays. In a nutshell, its discipline. Few coaches can coach well enough to run the option. You need to watch Navy play. I don't think you have. Paul Johnson will pass the ball if he has the ability. Whats that? You don't think you can pass the ball in the option? You can, and its almost unstoppable. On the flip side to stop the option oppossing defenses have to be disciplined. Something virtually none of them have these days.

Anybody heard Davis's comments? Its hard to disagree with some of them. Burns wanted to keep Merriwether in and Bowden overturned his descision. Look how it turned out. Gaines Adams also made the comment Bowden doesn't motivate him, he does that on his own. I'm afraid his days are numbered now. Say what you will but Gaines is a Senior, how can you be the head coach that is there for motivation only and your players have no confidence or respect for you. Sorry guys, I will continue to support him. But I can't really see us turning the corner with him.

I submit to you dear brother that the Tigers would pull a stunt like that. About 28 years ago they pulled the same stunt. Going away from a passing type attack that was not working and doing what? Thats right folks, they went to the option. History speaks for itself. The option and discipline is why we have high expectations these days, history built from the option. Anybody notice how we are in every game these days even with as disappointing as most of them turn out? Its because we run the ball now. Its how you finally beat us this year, running the ball. Its the way to go, retarded spread formations and runs up the middle don't work consistently however and keep the Defense on the field way too much. To succeed we will need to commit to a true running attack, like the option. Trust me dear brother, its coming.
