[QUOTE="BCJacket, post: 437784, member: 2332"] I think the "option" is overblown. CPJ is a really good coach when it comes to X's and O's and getting the most out of his athletes. He's had above-average success everywhere he's run his offense. Mostly at schools without much history of success. But the truth is that the offense really isn't as different as it's made out to be. This [URL='https://youtu.be/MSR3Y-yl1iQ']video[/URL] is an oldie but a goody. CPJ likes the wishbone because it's a balanced formation so it doesn't tip anything about the direction of the play. Also, he likes the QB to be under center to read the D and get a quicker hit from the BB. But ultimately, with motion, it can be the same as an I or a single back set or whatever. Split Clinton Lynch out as a receiver and put big Jordan Mason at A-back to block like a TE and you're basically in a NFL-style single back set. Move the QB in that to shotgun and it's the Urban Meyer shotgun spread option... Other than the wishbone formation, what CPJ does isn't very different from the other spread offenses out there. CPJ tried different things with Vad and the results were about the same. Give him Saban's players and he'd probably win big. Recruiting is about the same as it's always been. It's not the offense, it's the school and the resources. [/QUOTE]
