He talked to Morris about tempo, not the actual offense.
Morris is an outstanding coach.

The article sure makes it sound like Morris talked to the Aggies about a little more than just tempo. Regardless, Morris is running Malzahn's offense at Lake Travis and has won 33 straight.

Wish I could make this thing. It sounds like it's gonna be fun. I want to hear the Mobile Mom sellout story too. Well, I'll be in Minneapolis-Chicago-St Louis for the next two days, then as soon as I get in Friday night, driving to Vernon.
So, I'll see ya'll when I get back home.

He just talked about tempo. Sherman came from the NFL and could talk to the QB directly. Morris taught him how to use the wrist band and different signal packages (which can be confusing and innefficient if not done correctly).
From the article: "He decided in the offseason he needed to simplify the process to speed things up, yet keep the playbook."
Our play book is the exact same one we had last year, we just run a lot more plays than we did because of the tempo.

Noticed Joe Kines is your DC. His defenses were always effective but always drove me crazy, kind of a bend but don't break philosophy. Good guy. www.aggiesports.com/football/CESSNA--Kines-ready-to-see-A-amp-amp-M-Arkansas-from-other-sideKines' wife, Rubye, enjoyed her time in Arkansas from 1991-94.
"It's one of her favorite places, it's kinda like living in Mayberry -- seriously, [there are] great people in Arkansas," Kines said. "Chickens are big there, freight is big there and Wal-Mart is big there.
"When you'd go to the square on Saturday and buy a dozen ears of corn, you'd come home and there'd be 14 in the sack. It wasn't that the guy couldn't count, it's just that's the way they do business. It's really an enjoyable place to live."
Winters brought one main obstacle.
"We lived on a hill," he said. "Everything on Arkansas is on a hill. They'd block the street off and the kids would slide down the street [in the snow]. So you couldn't find your garbage can lid in the winter. Other than that, it was a good place to live, a really good place to live."
Kines even wore a hog hat and his daughter, Susan, still has one.
"[Aggies and Razorbacks] really love their schools," Kines said. "It takes a really, really good fan to put on one of those hogs hats, but they do it with vengeance."
