Why is clever play-calling made fun on here? I also think Harsin will be a failure, but that is an innovative play. It clearly worked.

It’s literally just a shift. I made fun of it because the players didn’t just shift - they rotated 270 degrees in the wrong direction before beginning their shift. It served no purpose.

Because it's seen as a weakness? It is in my book and I think it is for coaching as well.

The Mad Hatter and Gus loved them some misdirection. Once discovered however, it seemed to work against AU and LSU.

Plus, Les seemed as if his one big win (9-6 in Tuscaloosa) validated him as a genuine, excellent coach - not needing trickery. Wonder what he'll do now...

What was innovative about it? That the guys spread out wide turned to the right and pivoted all the way around? I mean, why didn't they just drop down into splits, pop back up, and moonwalk into formation?

This.

They split out the blockers out wide to force the defense to shift snd the blocking was damn strong.

I could easily see that specific play working in the sec.

If you want to make fun of him talk about his recruiting or that drill where they jump between tackling dummies
