I was kind of thinking the same thing. The only player we have faster then Bush is Ginn and Pat White is pretty close and both are used in the wildcat.

Yeah right how the heck do you do that? lol

Well in a way we have when we played the Colts and that didn't go so well.

... people... people.. please!

Scout teams try to match the plays, not the players. That includes the blocking scheme, not just who throws the ball or runs the ball.

That Reggie was getting big runs against the defense in drills means nothing.

The idea is to acclamate the defense to the scheme so they can see it as close as real life as possible... the defense may have been running at full speed, but surely they are not going to hit Reggie or tackle Reggie with the reckless abandon they do in-game... kind of like an Armed Forces FTX: you don't simulate ground warfare between 2 units with live rounds, do you?

Set em straight Tob. I really dont think the wildcat will be that big of a deal. After this week, I dont want to hear the word wildcat for the rest of the season.

PJ Hill ran some WC as well...for what it's worth.

I'd say the biggest news here is that Reggie is running with the scout team instead of the starters.

That's the first thing I thought about, too.

One thing, the Wild Cat isn't about Ricky and Ronnie, but also about the offensive line. They are good run blockers. Once Ricky and Ronnie get past the OL, they are both a load to bring down ... especially Ronnie. It should be a good match up for Greg Williams.

toby said something?

the wildcat is going to work because its new.....when teams started passing the ball defenses struggled until they discovered how to effectively use the nickel and dime defenses

its only a matter of time before people much smarter than me figure out a defense that is prime to stop the wildcat......for now, i would load up on the line and make ronnie brown beat us through the air by passing

i have no problem with him popping off a pass every now and then as long as we keep their ground game under control
