Message: [QUOTE="blizz, post: 3044944, member: 4252"] Eh...I disagree with this. You are absolutely right that Dino has put in alot of unique wrinkles in the run game. Alot of that stuff is situational, you saw it the most in red zone and short yardage situations, but yes the power and counter-iso type stuff was not a part of the Briles/Baylor system. Saying that it's only tempo is misleading. The extreme spread formation read-tag-and-go run at high tempo, the veer option to vertical routes, that's all Briles/Baylor. From what I see, when you see them run at tempo they are running the Baylor offense: they're lining up, the qb makes a pre-snap read and calls out a tag and they snap the ball. When you see them slowing down and checking pre-snap, they're mixing it up and often running other stuff. Maybe we're saying the same thing and that's what you mean by "up tempo system", just trying to make the distinction that the concepts are the same in addition to tempo. [/QUOTE]
