Chan Gailey's master plan of confusion

NOW Chan Gailey's offensive passing game is starting to come into focus for me. We were all wondering what it would take for Chan to develop this aspect of the offense. While recruiting size, speed and playmakers is obviously part of the strategy (just look at the receivers who have committed), his other strategy seems to be confusion. More specifically confusing the opponents.

Just look at the wide receivers who have committed to GT so far:

Calvin Johnson
James Johnson
Jarrell Johnson

We also have two full-backs on the roster named Johnson:

Alex Johnson
Brian Johnson

Are you seeing a pattern. Can you see the Clemson or UGAy defensive players in the next few years? "I've got Johnson"......"No, I've got Johnson"......"Who's got Johnson?"....."I thought you had Johnson"......."Will somebody please get Johnson!!!".

This should also make life fun for the TV broadcasters as well.
