Saban won't have a choice in two weeks. We're going to dictate to his defense what he can call. Our offense is that type of unit.
Our defense on the other hand......Remains to be seen.
That's why we need Vonn Bell to come onboard and help out.
Chaney is the key here. Saban and chaney are going to play chess. Saban is going to adjust to what ever formation we are in. So i think chaney will run the hurry up and have the personal in the game to run multiple offenses.
A few sick formations for some personel could be
QB: Bray, O-line: normal o-line, TE: Rivera(BUT if jason croom picks up that TE posion fast it would work better)
RB: Neal, FB: Ben B and cp and jh at wr
with thoughs player we could run the I formation, Ace, a 3 or 4 wr set using rivera or croom in the slot and Neal in the other with Ben B in the back field to block or run a draw play.
The great thing about our offense, is what ever formation we run where CP and JH are both out wide the opposing team has to have two safetys back to help on the fade. i just wish CP would make teams when they dont leave a man back.
Idc what the formations really are but imo one needs to be under center in the I, one needs to be, Pistel and one needs to be shotgun. And we need to be able to run the ball no matter how we line up. even if only for 2 or 3 yards a carry just something to keep an extra DB off the field.
If Jason Croom can block at all he will be a play maker at TE by the end of the year.
I think it would be a good idea if chaney drew up a couple of these formations and a few plays in them and take it to dooley and sunseri who have coached under saban to see how they would react to it and then work on it from there.
