All the athletes I talk to today seem pretty laid back. Pretty good group of boys coming through the system. So as long as whoever takes over forces the weightroom and running down their throats should not be a problem. Only thing I would like to see is get away from the fullhouse T. Use the strong line and run at defenses not off tackle. The T is fine if you counter alot and pull lineman Burg has shown that for years, but we have alot of backs that can hurt you. Wishbone, flexbone, The I/pOWER I, how many teams around go deep every year running the T?
Not very many, I'm a fan of the T and we had some nice balance last year as far as run to pass ratio (I think ratliff had like 900 yards passing), I also think Triplett gets a little too much crap as a playcaller, hes not Jon Gruden, but hes not terrible either.
Anyway, I think we need to get our athletes in space a little more, but thats jmo...you win with Jims and Joes not X's and O's, I just hope we get a coach that cares about weights
