maybe not, but i really liked it! from our dear coach:
Why not?
Given the success of the triple option, Georgia Tech head coach Paul Johnson was asked this week, why don’t more teams try it?
“Honestly, I don’t think very many people understand it,” Johnson said. “I think there’s a perception out there and a lot of times it’s perpetuated by the media and other people that it’s three yards and a cloud of dust, and fans don’t enjoy watching it, and it’s boring and guys can’t get to the next level if they play in it, and guys can’t do this and that.
And I think most of that has been proven wrong and I think as we get more into it here, all of it will be proven wrong. … I know how many big plays we can have, I know how exciting it is. Everywhere that we’ve been that we ran the offense, if you polled the fan base, I bet you they would all want to have it back.”
