Probably more time is spent practicing these packages then opposing defenses will spend preparing for them. If this were a movie franchise, it would probably be considered “fan service”.
The time would probably better be spent developing the pocket passing of Jalen and Mac Jones.
I’m typing this on my mobile so the terseness of my response may make it sound overly negative - that is not how I mean it. CNS obviously sees value in the package.

Can't wait to see Tua and Jalen lined up on the outside in the wildcat. D Harris snaps ball, Jalen comes around for a reverse, then the throw back to Tua for 6.

Pretty much how I feel. It's fine, but just a gimmick. As long as we don't waste too many plays doing it, then I don't care. They've mostly worked, but it's not like they've worked better than just running the offense.

Results of the 4 plays so far:
Hurts run for 5 yards.
Hurts run for 27 yards.
Hurts pass to Harris for 11 yards.
Tua pass to Hurts for 7 yards.
Avg. 12.5 yards per snap.
You don't see value in it?

Not sure why you'd think this. These specialty packages are relatively straight forward and only minor wrinkles to existing packages
If Dana Holgerson installs his entire WVU offense in 3 days, a Saban run program can handle a small specialty package

It isn't just spending time in practice, it is asking the opposing coaches to develop and the players to remember and execute an entirely new set of assignments.
The wildcat wrecked the NFL in 2008 because it took defenses time to respond + players time to adjust to recognizing and understanding new assignments/responsibility
