It didn't but they tried to install the 3-3-5 with a DC who was not familiar with it (and not particularly good at being a DC).

Also, I don't think anyone considers the version of the 3-3-5 WVU ran to be as dynamic or successful as the versions that started it all out West.  We played the Mountaineers for years when they ran it, and while it presented some problems, it was not the same as the chaotic and frenzied scheme San Diego State has been running.

That said, I agree that this scheme is best suited to going against spread or traditional pro style attracks.

If teams go heavy against it, they might hurt us with it.  But who runs that type of offense in the ACC?

BC.
Pitt, though they seem to be more pro oriented with each passing year.
Wake was really run oriented not long ago but again seems to pass the ball more each year.  They have pretty much abandoned the power sets and approach.

I much prefer an aggressive scheme that requires special preparation and puts pressure on the offense than a passive, traditional approach.

No scheme is perfect.  If this gets some ACC schools to change their offense to a heavy 2 TE type look and take highly skilled, fast players off the field, I think it is a good thing for us.
