Excerpt from Sam Pittman's Introductory Presser
“Well, you know if you look at the RPO game with the abilities for your quarterback to run and or throw,” Pittman said. “You know nowadays if you get big, big if you are going 12-plus, if you are going 12-22, 21-plus in this league you better have the real deal because they’re gonna have guys at 320, 330 pounds on the other side. I’m not telling you that the philosophy has gone to spread because that’s a lie, but I think you do have to have the edge covered.
“But I don’t think you can just turn around down and down and hand the ball off to the tailback and say let’s go sic’em.You might be able to do it in the third and fourth quarter, but so what we want is to be versatile. I love the RPO game, I like the quarterback read game. I like the 11 which is one tight end and three wide outs. I like to throw the flash screens and different things that is into the RPO system.”
Well how bout' them apples? Talk about stating the painfully obvious. Sam gets it.
I love that guy. Truly going to miss his presence but clearly he had enough.
