I don't know about the triple option, however, I am and always have been a fan of the freeze option.  Hard to argue that SU's best teams from yesteryear, Graves, McPherson, and McNabb, etc. were running that type of O. One thing that is absolute, and that is we absolutely need to have a QB that is a true dual threat, running an RPO scheme.  If nothing else, it minimizes the talent discrepancies that SU seemingly and continuously faces.

I watched a bunch of that Coastal Carolina vs. App State game yesterday on ESPN due to the cancelled Clemson/FSU game.  They have a true frosh QB (yes, believe it or not a true frosh, imagine that) who ran its O to a T.  He looked very comfortable in doing so, along with being quite productive, not to mention functional.   App St. is a decent team and one that although not ranked, was in the "receiving votes" category.  Coastal, is ranked #15 in the land.  Now, I have no idea if that ranking is legit or not, but if a Coastal Carolina can be ranked in the Top 15, and run an offense with a true frosh, it makes Dino look incompetent in my opinion. Especially, when he keeps harping the "youth" excuses for being a significant contributing factor in his team's epic failure this season.
