It's Not Chess ???

Respectfully disagree. Working a patient offense like this is not very easy for a high school age kid. Not many kids can pull it off. It takes skill, discipline, and patience. I will agree with you that it is difficult for the coach to teach his kids this, but it's also difficult for the kids to learn this. Exciting, probably not, unless you're the fan of an underdog team that works all week in practice to give itself a chance to win, and actually pulls it off on Friday night.
