[QUOTE="Boomergump, post: 258288, member: 639"] Absolutely not. I was responding to a concern about the perceived "speed " of the offense as in comparison to NAVY. When you look at NAVY it is easy to gain the perception that they run their offense faster than we do. I look at that and say they make the defense commit faster than we do. That is all. JT plays this offense to his strengths and CPJ is fine with that. If JT rolls an ankle tomorrow and MJ goes in, immediately our offense will look fast again, because we will run midline and MJ will get going to the north way faster in the triple. JT is doing what he does best. Heck, I doubt NAVY has a single player as "fast" as JT. He is just looking to find space, so he slow plays the TO in the second phase. It has its ups and downs. Having said all this, I do think it would be cool to have MJ run a series or two each game as a change up to what we normally do. It would be tough for defenses to adjust to. Hopefully we will get our hands on the ball more than 6 times and having MJ run a couple series won't represent 40% of our snaps. As to someody else's question about why doesn't JT run midline, well it is a bunch of factors.
