By implementing the wishbone or using it sometimes? The spread was once an unusual offense and now it seems there are more teams using the spread than not. Will the same thing happen with the old under center triple option that Paul Johnson has had success with?

I don't think it will as much because I think a lot of casual fans would complain and say it's too boring, particularly the students and younger fans. What do you think?

Personally, I hope not.

Most of the top athletes do not want to play in that system.

If you're really good and want to go pro, playing in an option offense isn't what you want to do.

If you're a top QB or WR would you want to play for Ga. Tech?

Also, if everyone starts to do it, that takes away from why it is so effective... Having only a week to prepare for an offense that is so different is one of the key advantages to running it... If everyone started doing it all the preperation would be personnel-based... Then again, I could be wrong and then the offense would just mutate even more...

What about teams that don't bring in top athletes? Mid-Majors or bad BCS teams? Does Georgia Tech not have top athletes?

But not every teams goal is to win a national title. Also, couldn't the same have been said about spread offense teams 5-10 years ago?
