[QUOTE="jacketup, post: 477452, member: 630"] First, you need to read the recent Sports Illustrated article on the option. One quote was from Lou Holtz and why he stopped running it at Arkansas: because high school coaches told him everyone wants to play wide receiver. The point the article was making is that recruiting is harder. If it's harder for the Hogs, why would it be easier at GT? Second, Alabama, Texas, Oklahoma and others used to run triple option. They didn't quit running it because it didn't work they quit because it impacted recruiting--although it also limits, pardon the pun, options to attack defenses. It would not be that hard to put in an RPO offense from where we are right now, although we really don't have the personnel at the moment to run it. However, I'm not sure an RPO offense would look much worse than what we've seen in the last 6 quarters against Duke. Johnson also needs to get rid of the A back and B back designations and use slot receiver and running back. But, I don't see him changing anything. Even if he was willing that ship has probably sailed. [/QUOTE]
