I was reading this pretty interesting article about Steve Spurrier building the USCe program and one thing jumped out at me, given all of our arguing about the OL:


Bringing in Shawn Elliott was also a key. He has been a stabilizing force with the Gamecocks' offensive line, which was a recurring problem for Spurrier at South Carolina until Elliott came aboard in 2010.

Elliott, who was promoted to co-offensive coordinator before this season, also brought the zone read package with him from Appalachian State.

I find this pretty interesting. It tells me two things:

1. Your success as a coach often depends on the success of your position coaches.
2. If the student-athletes of USCe are intelligent enough to learn to play a zone read OL scheme, do we really believe the UConn student-athletes aren't?
