what's so absurd about having a package of plays specifically designed around a high impact skill position player? I don't get that
Not worried about formations giving a clue to the defense for what play will be run? Said like a co-co-Offensive Coordinator for tu in the Texas bowl.
Ofcourse, but... if any formation can itself hide a subset of specific plays, wouldn't having a new package which would presumably operate under a similar method of misdirection and deception just make the opposing defensive coordinator's job that much more difficult in preparing?
I'm no football genius. You may be right. I just remember being relieved every time OU rolled out the Bell-Dozer package. The announcers loved it, but it just seemed to indicate that they were going to run either a triple option left or right. I presume that it really narrows the focus of the defense when you telegraph a vastly reduced set of possible plays based on an obvious personnel change.
It
could work with Kyler considering his wide array of skills as a passer and runner.
It just strikes me as gimmicky and unreliable; and possibly a bad investment of practice time required to pull something like that off well; related to the overall benefit throughout the year.
