[QUOTE="Techster, post: 38041, member: 360"] We'll have to take Vad's word for it. He did say in a pretty public interview that "the triple option isn't for me". I think Vad fell in love with the Run and Shoot aspects of our offense, and the potential of what the offense could be if fully developed in passing and running. Unfortunately for Vad, it seems like he didn't have faith in CPJ developing him as a passer. It's no secret that Vad spent a LOT of time working on the passing phase of his game with the multiple 7v7's and passing workouts during the offseason, plus spending a large sum of money twice to workout with George Whitfield in California. CPJ has said many times over and over that if our offense wanted to pass more, they would have to work on it away from official practices. I think Vad thought he did that, but CPJ still had to do what was best for the team. If GT fans are objective about it, CPJ did exactly that...our OL was attrocious last season, and our blocking on the perimeter was inconsistent at best. Now don't get me wrong, I think CPJ did try to take advantage of Vad's arm compared to Nesbitt and Tevin, but I don't think that was enough for Vad. All the parts were not there for CPJ to fully utilize Vad, and had Vad stayed CPJ might have given Vad what he wanted with the talent at other offensive positions increasing over the next few years. We'll never know now. [/QUOTE]
