Message: [QUOTE="Millhouse, post: 947431, member: 78"] the big lesson from those years is that we need to be out ahead of other teams in terms of offensive innovation. back then it was easier - hey lets not be stupid racists like every other football meathead on earth and let black guys throw the ball some. eventually even the meatheads caught on. there isn't that low hanging fruit anymore. there was some low hanging fruit 10 years ago but we went and hired a guy to run the *cking west coast offense. marrone spent so long white knuckling that we didn't get to see the benefits of where he was out in front (packaged run pass plays) with mcdonald, we got a recruiter who is playing follow the leader. it's better than being way behind. also, if someone can make Pitt and Penn State suck really bad, that would help too [/QUOTE]
