Texas A&M helping Packers with read-option | FOX Sports Wisconsin
The Aggies don't run a lot of read option. Neither do most SEC teams. Here's an insane excerpt from this story.
If Sumlin -- a pass-first type of offensive coach -- let his defensive coaches handle more of the read-option training for the Packers' staff, it's not as though Texas A&M's defense faced it very often recently, either. Missouri, Ole Miss and to a lesser extent Mississippi State were the only SEC teams to use much read-type offense.
Regardless, McCarthy and his coaching staff are clearly committed to learn more about how to stop Kaepernick and Griffin next season.
Jeez, Mike.
