[QUOTE="dcyellowjacket, post: 123071, member: 1869"] Yes, he was, though CPJ never called it the flex or flexbone. That terminology comes from Air Force, which saw Georgia Southern play with CPJ as OC in the mid-eighties and used some of his concepts to update their wishbone attack. The year before PJ was named OC at GSU, they ran a run-and-shoot attack installed by a group of coaches from Houston. When that group left, Erk Russell told PJ he wanted to get back to running the ball, but PJ had a roster built for run-and-shoot, so he developed a system that would let a team run the ball with R&S personnel. Necessity is the mother of invention... BTW, I cribbed the above from a talk CPJ delivered about the history of the offense. Probably I have some of the details wrong. [/QUOTE]
