[QUOTE="mradtke66, post: 891062, member: 4199"] Committing to running has about 0 to do with the scheme being power vs. zone. I'm not going to say that McCarthy never ran power schemes, but they were predominantly a zone team for his entire tenure. Eddie Lacey tosses, that many complained about, designed for the cutback lane. One wouldn't expect Eddie to turn the corner often, it was about getting flow going one way to help create a natural cutback lane. Also, power/gap is largely the same thing, or power a subset of gap. Typically at the pro level, power usually implies the backside guard leading up in the hole or kicking out the playside end. Depending on the scheme, power can just be the generic term for kickout concepts, regardless of who is doing it. It's still "running, take the ball through [I][B]this[/B][/I] hole." I'd really like to understand why you think he wasn't big on zone runs. Stats would be nice if you have them, but even what game(s) or trends you perceive and why. [/QUOTE]
