    "I’ve coached both high-school and D-I football and I’ve learned the hard way that it is either impossible, in the case of high school, or or so difficult to the point of being prohibitive, as in the case of college ball, to effectively implement a multiple-formation intensive system and to consistently succeed with it. At my last D-I school we ran the true west coast offense, as my head coach was a legitimate disciple of Bill Walsh. Not only was it difficult to install all of our formations, but it made our players hesitant; they were so worried about getting lined up correctly that they were not able to concentrate on running the play. Another unintended consequence was that the different looks we installed confused our players more than the defenses we faced."

    This guy has coached at a BigX12 school. I'm curious what school that was.

    If you need help and advice on how to "Get R Done " call Gary DeBoer the head coach for the Lawrence Nelson Raiders , he is " the Dean " of the Nebraska High school coaches , and has seen it all. He has coached for 30 years plus , and has several Nebraska High school state championships to his credit. He has also coached in several Shrine games.
    If he could coach multiple formations at that high school level , college coaches should , and have . People forget that Bill Callahan and Shawn Watson were successful before they came to Nebraska , and dont blame Shawn for a lack of offense Saturday , as we are WAY overmatched concerning our Offense vs. OU defense. Hope I am wrong about that ....
    Good luck Huskers !

    Opinions are only formed when the recipient pauses , listens , studies and then discerns for memory what is beneficial. Blind ambition only serves to promote deception within the benefactors ignorance. But then ignorance is bliss ....
