He can run but don't look for Urban to feature him as a runner as much as he did with Alex Smith. In that offense the quarterback is kind of like a wishbone quarterback in that every thing is keyed off him. Look for him to pass more than he runs. Urban really likes him.

Bob Davie

There is a lot more attacking (in the wishbone) than in the I.

Steve Howard

The individual activity of one man with backbone will do more than a thousand men with a mere wishbone.

William J. H. Boetcker

With the success Skyline has had you would think everyone in the state would be running the wishbone, ... It's a great high school offense with its emphasis on execution. It doesn't lose games for them. There are a lot of ways to win football games. It's just a matter of what works for you.

Van Orden

It looks like they are going back to their roots as more of a power running team with some wishbone and option thrown in. This will definitely be a challenge for our run defense.

Tommy Douglas

It's nice to have Danny back and he's only going to help this team. He's not the fastest guy on the roster but he can be very dangerous with the ball in his hands because he runs the wishbone so effectively. He also takes some of the pressure off our other backs because of his ability to run.

Our opening drive in the third quarter was a good one, ... We went to the Wishbone and we just drove the ball downfield. Sure, New Bern scored right after that, and that's really no surprise. It's not like we were playing the Sisters of the Poor. They have a great tradition. Our defense is young, but they buckled down after that last New Bern score and that's encouraging.

Bob Sapp

I've never gotten over that one. We were much better than Stanford. But we changed our offense to an option type thing. We were running the Wishbone! We could have put our hands on three national championships.

John Brockington

Really? I think for a long time they probably didn't have a quarterback because they were a wishbone team.

Gil Brandt

They run a wishbone set, so they run a lot of power and power sweep stuff, which last week we've had a lot of trouble with. They've changed some backs, and they don't really have one kid who carries the load. They're pretty young right now, but I think they're growing.

Golden Bears

I liked to think there was not anyone who could run it better. I liked to think the wishbone offense was my baby until I had three of my own.

Thomas Lott Ii

I can't remember any team in high school playing the wishbone. In fact, I can't remember ever playing against it.
