^^^That's a morph/photoshop thing found somewhere.  I've seen the same thing for Miles.  If I made add one thing, that pic foul deserves an ejection.  :lol:

I've heard the same thing as you.  There is a thread I posted earlier this morning on the spread.  Check it out.


Basically, there are three components I've seen. Wider sets for the lineman, 3-4 wide for the receivers all while running out of a no back or single back set.  It negates some of the speed you see on the defensive side of the ball especially in our league. 


We see elements of it with Bama.  One difference I've noticed with Bama is a lot of the times we'll run a spread type formation but out of a double TE set.  One of the things "they say" is a part of a true spread is a single TE set.


The wider sets like you mentioned, at least that I can recall, made it's way into Div. 1 with OU and Clemson.  Then, led to WVU and Kansas. 


Mike Leach and June Jones both run some peculiar offenses.  Somewhat like Spurrier in that their receivers are running to a spot. 


Now, I haven't done a great amount of study on the spread but the way I see it the differences between the TT and Haw. offense and the other ones we've mentioned is the QB has the reads on the "true spread" vs it's the WR's making a lot of the reads in those other two.  At least, that is the way I understood the Hawai'i QB explain it a few weeks ago on a TV.
