This is exactly why I'm not convinced that our current strategy is sound.

We want to run the type of offense that gets athletes in space with the ball and a chance to make a play.  We also want to build a team around players that are not blue chip recruits.  Those two seem to be at odds with one another.  To be successful in business, you can either do better what everyone else is doing, or you can do something nobody else is doing.  We are trying to do what everyone else is doing with lesser players.  It's great that we are getting kids out of Florida.  But we aren't beating FSU or UF for those kids.  So when we try to run a fast paced passing offense against FSU, we aren't going to succeed.

I know the dome is a great place to run a wide open, track-meet style offense.  But does it really help us if the visiting team's athletes are faster than ours to begin with?

We used speed to our advantage in the dome when power football was the prevailing style.  Maybe its time to rethink trying to beat the rest of the P5 at their own game.
