I wholeheartedly disagree. For goodness sakes, Smith and Pryor chose tOSU in order to play Tressel-ball. Tressel doesn't have them do anything more outlandish and/or inventive than what Iowa does on O.
Penn State really isn't all that fundamentally different from the Hawkeyes either and yet look at them landing QBs who share the same skill sets as Cardale Jones.
It's worth reiterating that Iowa happily exploited Brad Banks's wonderful mobility ... and rode it all the way to the Orange Bowl. Furthermore, it very nearly won Banks the Heisman too! Do you think that Brad Banks believes that Iowa would misuse that sort of skill-set?
It's true that Cardale Jones might not have the sort of production at Iowa that he might have at schools that feature specialized "schemes" ... however, Iowa's O will still allow him to use his mobility to the fullest. Furthermore, while he may not put up insane stats, NFL scouts will know that he was well taught and came from a very NFL-friendly system.
Look at what has or will become of Illinois's Juice, Florida's Tebow, and Indiana's Lewis (former QB/WR). In the end, those guys chose a "system" ... and the system effectively ended up dramatically hurting any NFL aspirations they might have had (at least at the QB spot).
I wish folks would quit propagating the "myth."
