Well, the guy he hired as a consultant in Chris Ault, completely changed his offensive mindset and philosophy almost overnight in 2005 after watching the success of the Urban Meyer spread system when he brought in the Pistol at the age of 60 when he, after being Nevada's Athletic Director from 1985 to 2004. (He was also football coach from '76 to '92 and for the '94/'95 season.)
People change and Reid is a pretty smart and football savvy guy. I think it's pretty obvious why he brought in Ault and Childress - to change up his Edwards west coast system and modernize it with a spread/pistol wrinkle. And having a guy like Smith, who excelled in such a system in college, only reiterates that he's going to make such changes.
I have absolutely no idea why you continue to think that because Reid ran a Lavell Edwards system in Philly during his time their that he won't/can't make changes to that system now in KC. Everything he's done points to it.
Perhaps it's your own inflexibility that's manifesting itself in your thought process. |
