    This is what happens when

    A whole sport evolves and you don't.

    Note the other casualties such as Les Miles, Houston Nutt, Brett Bielema, Bobby Petrino, Bo Pelini, etc. etc. etc. What have you done for me lately!!
    If you don't adjust in this day in age you will be toast. To start, Leach will have to add more play action and QB roll outs to ever make this work here.

    Which is why next time we hire a coach, the main characteristic we should require behind discipline is adaptability. I don't want a coach married to a system. I want a coach that does whatever it takes to win.

    Bingo, and I don't want him to call the plays offensively or defensively. Last time we had that Jackie was patrolling the sidelines and that worked out pretty well.

    Although the odd thing about Jackie was no matter who the OC was we still lined up in the I formation and ran the ball.

    True somewhat, ran a lot of option as well his first couple of years, and he also ran a lot of shotgun concepts with Fant, but I hear ya,

    The option was only really with Watson Brown. And then the option kind of went out of style in the early 90's.

    Does he create a 5th play to his 4 play playbook?

    Gun - why do you keep making assumptions that have no merit of coming to be based on history. Do you just go off gut feel or emotion.

    There has only been one team in his past that has run a 3-8 defense against him. Washington the last 6 years;

    No other team has tried it until Kentucky, Upig, A&M and now Bama.

    I?m going to have to see him beat it before I can agree ?he has never struggled like his?, because he absolutely has struggled like this against the 3-8;
