Anyone in the 1970s in the shotgun was thought of as simply trying to mimic the Dallas Cowboys. Anyone today running the Wishbone has to defend their offense at every booster club meeting. If some team did today what Alabama did when they busted out the Wishbone in 1971 and had some decent talent, they'd run through their schedule like Shi'ite through a goose. Just like if you could teleport Mike Leech back to the 1960s and run the Air Raid.
Go look at those eras when those offenses and others came onto the scene, those offenses dominated, and then defenses adapted. The Single Wing was put out of existence by the 6-2 defense long before Brown v. Board, and 10 years from now on Friday night you'll be watching your team run something that looks nothing like what you saw last week.
On top of that, coaches are just as different. Appreciate each for what they do/have done and quit doing the 'my coach has a bigger **** than yours' shtick. You sound like those idiot fans beside you in the stands during the game.
Taking pride in your program means you don't have to defend it from the outside.
Bruh calm down
