Deep in Tha Heart of...
All insults aside, this is a pretty good debate.
I agree with the A&M point of view because I agree with their overall offensive philosophy. A team should always make an honest attempt to be balanced on offense. (IMO, that means RUN the ball well first and foremost.) I you have bonafide fullbacks and tight ends and bother to use them, even better. If you can run the ball with authority, you'll eventually be able to pass the ball. It doesn't work the other way around.
I understand that teams have to do whatever it takes to win, but the right idea is the right idea. I don't think that Pete is doing J.C. Lewis any favors by becoming more and more one-dimensional. It's bound to hurt the kid and the team in the long run. I think SU is headed down the wrong path on offense. Again, that's just my opinion.
