Message: [QUOTE="TheCusian, post: 2300590, member: 2585"] You keep saying this and it's not true. It's a base system - lots of schools play elements of it. It's like West Coast offense and Spread and Air Raid. It starts as something new, coaches take what they want and riff on it depending on talent and what works for them. What we play isn't a strict Tampa 2 like what we play isn't a strict Spread O. VaTech and Bud Foster have played their version of the "Tampa 2" forever. It's not pure, but a riff on it. You're right in that the defense we want to play requires different kinds of players that what SS employed. We have taken positive steps already (Martin, Frederick, Butler, Berry). I think we need to see more. They did a nice job in the first half vs MTSU. And there was not a whole lot of proof SS D would work against the best ACC teams either and we have more actual game tape.
