during his time at lake forest college jones tinkered with simple options on the basic t formation. many coaches were searching for answers to an easy-to-teach formation that was also not easy to defend. jones approached halas with various diagrammed options. not until clark shaughnessy, head coach at the university of chicago, approached halas with very complex formations in 1935 did the "t" become effective. many coaches contributed to the success of the t-formation that swept college and pro football in 1940. shaughnessy's stanford university team went 10–0 and defeated the university of nebraska in the rose bowl with his elaborate t-formation. weeks later, halas's bears defeated the washington redskins 73–0 with the same system. jones left the bears to become athletic director at lake forest college.
