He is a great defensive coach and great person also. Kelly has done a good job of getting one of the best defensive coaches that is out there. [/quote] According to Coach Long it's the same Coach.
  2. Some board members even held up one finger on one hand and two on the other when voting "yay" to approve Thompson, the same hand-sign players use to say "112 percent," the motto of quarterback Reggie Garrett, who died in September. He will continue to serve as defensive coordinator and will run the same 50-defense the school has run since 1977. On offense, Thompson will keep the spread offense and all of the terminology. The only change is that he wants to run the ball more. "We won't be in the wishbone or the stacked I or anything like that nature," Thompson said. "We have spread athletes now."

We have not had that kind of personnell since the early 90's at WOS. I think it would be a mistake to scrap the spread because it gets ALL of your athletes (of which we have an abundance) involved while minimizing your lack of size/ability up front. I totally understand wanting to shorten the game and play keep away. But you can only do that in a run oriented offense by moving the sticks and if you can't do that then you can't score and you just put more pressure on your defense. Nothing worse than run, run, run, punt. Run, run, run, punt. I was watching our 1987 state title game against Rockwall a while back and I heard them say that the WOS line averaged 250 lbs... We ain't seen anything like that in years. I also know Coach T knows and understands this as well. That's why I don't think you are going to see a bunch of conservatism. More, probably, but you wont see a wholesale change, IMO. At least I hope not. IMO, the reason WOS has not seen more success the last couple of years has NOTHING to do with the type of offense or defense we run, but just not performing in the big game. Our last game the last 2 years we've had a total of 13 turnovers in those 2 games alone. You just can't win doing that. [/quote] The spread wont be dumped completely. I do agree though on having to have a big Line.
