This is too long to reply to on a phone, but your understanding of math is deeply flawed. We aren’t testing their efficiency anymore than they’re testing our efficiency.failing fast isn’t better than failing slowly.

And I promise that Dino (and every other coach) would rather win the time of possession battle. There’s a reason why it correlates to winning, and that reason is because defenses get tired faster than offenses because they have to react. As such, we absolutely do NOT want to score fast and then have their offense grind us down all game. That’s how you get gassed at the end of the game.

Also, your “more risk than he usually takes” argument is irrelevant. He usually takes a lot of risks. That’s why we have gotten great upsets and catastrophic failures (getting absolutely dismantled by Wake Forest and BC in back to back weeks is an upset - sorry).

There’s also no evidence that Dino’s system trains “better” than more traditional systems. In fact, if you believe the mantra of “only perfect practice makes perfect,” then it doesn’t.

As for the rest, you’re generally back tracking, throwing our random statements, and saying things that are wrong. For example, I challenge you to find a single coach who actively tries to get murdered in the time of possession battle.
