Gunslinger Drew Lock has handed the reins of the Mizzou offense over to dual-threat par excellence Kelly Bryant, formerly a Tiger of the Clemson brand. One imagines this transition will trigger offensive coordinator Derek Dooley to tweak his approach, finding ways to keep the ball in Bryant’s hands.
I believe we can make some educated guesses about the changes to come. To do so, we need to consider a factor essential for any coach looking to add to his playbook: how “expensive” or “cheap” the addition will be.
A cheap addition is one based on schemes and techniques players already understand and that, therefore, don’t require much additional time and effort for players to master.
