I suggestwe switch to the KISS system.
SMU's first president, Robert S. Hyer, selected Harvard Crimson and Yale Blue as SMU's colors to symbolize SMU's high academic standards. We are one of the few Universities to have school colors with real meaning...and we just blow them off.

I think the offense is simple, the defenses are complex. It is easy for everyone to make the right read in 1980, but decades of RnS concepts have resulted in defenses with schemes to hide their scheme and confuse the QB.

Hey mom or is it dad or grandpa or brother or sister. Don't you know it only makes it harder if you get on a post and start talking bad about other guys on the team and the coaches. If he has the same attitude maybe that is affecting play too. It is not about one player but about the TEAM. It is not about how many catches one player makes but about the success of the TEAM. Don't you think the coaches play the best players who they think will help them win.....and keep their jobs?

The general sentiment of this is on point, but what I've seen so far from the coaching staff would call this logic into question. When you are getting blown out by BCS teams, and your defense outscores your offense against an FCS team, it's time to start tinkering with who is on the field because clearly something ain't working. JJ is notorious at this point for not being willing to do that.
