This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

I believe it has something to do with Kelly's overly - by 84david
complicated route tree. Each of the three different WR positions has up to 20 different routes they need to master plus being able recognize differences between man and zone and adjusting their routes accordingly. And of course, they have to demonstrate the ability to block on running plays. Thats probably too much to absorb from a kid right out of high school.
Lou was smart enough to know that he needed to get his super-athletes on the field ASAP (e.g. Rocket). He simplified things for the frosh by only requiring them to know a couple of routes and got them on the field running fly routes or short screens. None of this triple-move dig route behind the LBs BS. Just let the other team chase your young athletes down the field.
