chuck you hit that on the head! i never believed that statement until i had to watch shula coach Ba ma for 4 yrs.
perfect example, how many toss sweeps do you see in the nfl anymore? VERY few, the qb takes the ball and hands it off and the rb tries to get the corner. we Bama fans watched this for 4 yrs and shula stated he didn't like the toss.
Saban's first play from scrimmage at B-D Stadium? toss sweep right, 59 yds, TD Bama.
