I feel if we implemented some of their offense we could at least put points on the board right away. What do you think? Sounds practical and like it could work here and work well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Flowers, Mack, Johnson and Swanson we'd have the skills I would think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The triple option done poorly is a fiasco of fumbles and stuffed runs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds practical and like it could work here and work well It's hard to recruit Florida for an offensive line required to run the triple option. Taggart has been trying to recruit those offensive lineman for the last two years (for his run heavy scheme) and it just hasn't happened. You can run a WR at QB in the triple option, but it's all based off of 5 guys that can create great 'push'.

Florida gets the best athletes in the country year in and year out. So no I dont buy that, POINT IS IF GEORGIA SOUTHERN CAN PUT TOGETHER THAT SYSTEM WE CAN TOO.

Before you go all crazy caps on me, I'm trying to tell you that you aren't looking for the best athletes on the O-Line. You are looking for 300+ lbs offensive line that can dominate the line of scrimmage. In fact, they don't have to be quick and athletic, because they are literally just pushing forward. Those offenses throw about 15 times a game, so they don't need the same pass protections skills. Those offensive lineman, for one reason or another, generally reside north of florida or in the midwest region of the country. You also would need to replace your entire offensive staff to the run that scheme. Edited July 31, 2015 by BrownBullsFan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
