There is so much more to this than what meets the eye. There is not a right and wrong tot his. Jimmy's and Joe's come first. Then mold what you do to what they can do and coach them up in that system. It is not college where you can recruit players to your system (I.E. Georgia Tech). Like I said earlier, it is a waste of time trying to do things you are not capable of on offense because it puts your defense in a bad situation. Football has three elements that must work equally together for you to be successful. Knox had great success because they have great players. What happens when their skill is not what it was this year? There are a lot of strategic ways to win games with less talent. Over extending your self ability wise is not one of them. You talk about winning championships, you win championships by mastering your craft offensivly and defensivly. Don't let special teams beat you. All offensive sytems work when you have players. And the type of offense you run does not really dictate how well you stop other people. How good your defensive players and how hard your defensive coach works at stopping them determines that in my opinion.

This is all a matter of philosophy. If you believe in christianity you won't go to a muslim church. If you beleive in the option don't try to be a 5 wide guy. Teach and coach what you know.
