The Stages of Triple Option

The Stages of Triple Option

This awesome post comes from The Hive and is from DifferentialX.

The stages Kubler-Ross identified are:

* Denial (this isn’t happening to me!)
* Anger (why is this happening to me?)
* Bargaining (I promise I’ll be a better person if…)
* Depression (I don’t care anymore)
* Acceptance (I’m ready for whatever comes)

Stage 1: Denial. The triple option will not work in big-time football. It’s a high school offense, a gimmick.

Stage 2: Anger. Dammit! We just got beat by the triple option. We were out-schemed. Next year we will use the LSU blueprint, and everything will return to normal.

Stage 3: Bargaining. Look, okay, so the triple option works with real players, but recruits, come play for us and we promise we won’t run that triple option and ruin your pro career. Without you blue-chippers, the option will fail.

Stage 4: Depression. I hate this. The triple option has ruined my life. I got owned on Sportscenter. I’m gonna take the triple option down with me. It only works because of cheating. The triple option should be illegal.

Stage 5: Acceptance. …. Still waiting for this stage, but just be patient.
