i wanted to let the board cool down a bit before posting this.

but, i think part of the reason tee martin and jay graham are not at tennessee is a direct consequence of the spread.

there are positives and negatives to everything.

the negative of the spread is that only a few run it and only a few coach it. some don't even want to coach it. they don't believe in it philosophically and if they rise in the coaching ranks that's not the route they want to go.

well, since tennessee has never run the spread, there is no vfl who is familiar with the spread.

this is a blessing in a way. it's one thing for players to adjust to a new system, but you don't want coaches to have to adjust to a new system.

it also ain't a picnic going back from the spread to a more traditional offense when the time comes.

don't be too hard on tee or jay. it makes a whole lot of sense

Just so you know, the NFL is slowly adopting some of this "new" tendencies.

Complete speculation. You don't even know what the offense is gonna look like. There are many variations to say the least. I doubt they said "love my school, love the money. Wait. What? You're running the spread? Never mind, I'm gone."

The zone read version of the spread is probably what he meant and he is correct. We have never ran that offense and I am personally not a fan.

I said earlier today our regular Gator fans are solid posters (I'm thinking mostly of you, Lawrence, and Lawgator).

This is another example.

Having said that, it appears the Cryptkeeper's pact with the Booger Eater to ensure he didn't have to hire Gruden is responsible for Jay going to FSU.

CBJ's offense avgs close to 200 yards rushing per game. He's not a coach who throws 50 times and runs 20. The biggest difference you will see with CBJ will be speedy WRs running short to medium routes instead of trying to go for the long ball all the time. CBJ's offense lives on 3-12 yard passes. Pig, Bowels, Smith, Dallas, and Blanc (If he stays at WR) will all thrive in CBJ's offense. Croom will become our red zone threat WR, and North and Harris will be our big time play makers just like Thompkins was at Cincy except Harris and North will be way better.
