I think the reason teams have gone to so much shotgun ( in the pros) is the QB's now call out the protections and it gives them better vision to pick up blitzes.

But you're correct, it starts in HS. I watched the college game last night and SMU and Cent Fla didn't get under center at all. SMU had a 4th and inches and ran play action in gun that fooled no one.

It's hard to compare era's but the speed today on defense especially is crazy. Look at guys like Donald, Parsons , Watt , etc.
