Hi Brian, sounds like you had a bad day. My question to you, how do you think this offense will do once the season starts and the season progresses?
I don't think that the WCO will work in the college as it takes so much time to learn and these kids are here for such a short period of time. I think Dorrell has done a great job of turning this program around and has going in the right direction. Some may not feel that way, oh well.

Speaking of the offense, is there any contingency plan in case the offense sputters at the beginning of the season? Obviously the West Coast Offense is complicated to learn...does Norvell have any plans on instituting a K.I.S.S. (Keep It Simple Stupid) system focused more on execution rather than complexity? If I recall correctly, Norm Chow ran a relatively simplified offense during his time at USC, and did particularly well with the, at the time, much-maligned Carson Palmer.
