Somebody school me on the spread option

We didn't really run that type of offense on West Airport Blvd. It was more of a traditional pro style, depending on how many cars where parked on the street on a given day.

Could the spread be something that would better utilize Herb's talents?

It would better utilize Herb's talents until he got sandwiched inbetween a linebacker and an end. Then it would better utilize his backup's talents.
