I think we have enough rb's to rotate throughout the game. Heard's a better runner anyway, and Swoops can't throw. Besides with the exception of Burt we don't have any receivers who can catch the ball and in a wishbone you only need one.

You can't recruit lineman to run the bone that are quality. The top Oline kids know that the NFL is a pssing eague and to be able to make it in the league you have GOT to be able to pass block. Run blocking in the NFL is important too but not as important as pass blocking. Not knowing how to pass block gets people killed-- (usually the guy wearing a jersey number as low as 1 and as high as 19) and NFL teams won't draft a kid that blocked 70 times a game on the ground and 5 times a game in the air.

Clob, I was trying to be funny. A sense of humor during the whose going to be the new oc craze.
 
Actually wouldn't mind incorporating some of the bone in our Swoops packages. Lets face it, he can't do a forward pass, maybe he can do a side ways one.
 
Oh my bad. I took you seriously because many years ago we had a backfield with Ricky, priest and shon mitchell. James brown was our QB and was fast as well and the seniors went to Mackopr!ck and said "hey, what do you think about us throwing some triple option plays intot he playbook to throw people off"............................................................................................................... Let's just say that Mackopr!ck wasn't very happy about anyone questioning his offense.
 
Since defenses are smaller/faster to defend the spread, you could theoretically have some short term success if you went to wishbone. As clob said the problem would be getting the quality in here to run it.
