Put him in defensive motion

I hinted at that one time but said it a bit differently. What might work is to wait until the center calls blocking schemes...evident when the center starts pointing across the LOS. After he finishes that process, you probably have at least a few seconds for Perkins to move/aka put him in motion.

The only caveats with that are you might have a risk of Perkins taking himself out of the play, putting him in an area already covered by another LSU player, or the other team might recognize what is going on and start quick snapping.

The position that Perk will be playing this year he won't have to move very far to get to a spot that he can rush the passer. He is also lined up at a spot that he can blitz directly from that spot and still get there. An example would be a combo blitz and stunt where the weakside end slams inside the tackle and Perk comes screaming off the edge from some depth. I'd assume you'll see a lot of that.

That's called a delayed blitz and happens all the time in college football.

House had zero clue how to use Perkins. I screamed for him to delay blitz Perkins up the a gap all last yr.

You can even delay blitz him off the edge once the o line declares. This is what good dcs do. House was not one
