There's time enough to try new ideas when your season isn't on the line.  |
Maybe it's just a Muskegon thing, but we are still playing with a prototype drivetrain as well. Both us and 4004 have a pretty good student base to take care of preparation items for the upcoming season. This just feels like a perfect time to keep playing with new ideas. If our season success was determined by the work we do leading up to kickoff rather than after kickoff, I know quite a few teams that would be in trouble every season.
