RPO v "read option"

Help!! Read Option v Run Pass Option (RPO).
Apparently some dudes on Tiger Droppings think LSU is running a "read option" offense?
For those that need help, for "read option" or "triple option", please think West Monroe 1997 w/ Tommy Banks. QB reads the defensive end and (1) hands off to Tommy, (2) pulls and runs, or (3) pulls and pitches. IMPORTANTLY no pass option and lineman DOWNFIELD, full run block.
RPO = QB reads defense (incl. linebacker / defensive end or generally) and (1) hands off, (2) pulls and runs, or (3) pulls and throws. Importantly, lineman NOT DOWNFIELD!!!
Suggesting LSU's offense is a "read option" is fuc*%ng insane. Wow.

No, because that's not what a read option is in today's game.
That's a read option/zone read, which is what's being referred to.
And an RPO almost never leads to a QB running (unless the play busts down, b/c the OL will be too far upfield). The RPO is like a modern play action where the RB can actually run.
Now, if you want to be even more accurate, you can talk about how we're primarily running an inside zone with a little outside zone sprinkled in, with no read/option.

SlowFlow LSU is definitely running RPOs, and inside / outside zones.
RPO Example 1: A&M Game - 8:05 3rd Quarter 2nd and 10. This is the play we must never run again while Nuss is QB.
The reasons this play is an "RPO"; Campbell pulls, lineman pass block. Receivers, assuming the presnap call is run, run block. This play is only for dual threat QB's with decision making duties. At present Nuss is neither.

Dude - a "zone read" has nothing to do, whatsoever, with a "read option".
To suggest these concepts are similar is also insanity. wow

Hey now, as a person who has had a lot of sinus issues due to allergies, I take umbrage to you putting this guy in that category.

RPO puts one defender in a “bind” where he either fills his gap or drops into coverage. A good read gives you numbers in the box for the run (box count, hat on hat etc) OR a slightly open WR/TE/H on a QUICK GAME route. Nothing too deep due to linemen downfield.
Read option is reading a player on the run for a run with blocking downfield. You just don’t block a read player. Midline, triple, power read, veer, ….are all read options.
Typically an RPO does not involve the Quarterback running the ball unless it’s a called Quarterback run like a Tebow pop pass….which was technically one of the first RPOs ever run. Pop passes
Not many people run Quarterback RPO

You’re wrong.
Any running play can be a read option, including plays with a pulling guard, tackle or center.

we basically ran a "triple option" horizontal RPO or basically a RPRO with JD5. 2 reads. nomrally that is not the case,
normally it is 1 read. denbrock did 2 reads on some of his horizontal RPOS.
yes, everyone here knows we are NOT running a classic triple option from a servicer academy circa 1985.
even armys version of the flexbone today is badass. 3 and 4 options on many plays.
we covered all this the other day,
see link below.

denbrock did with JD5. see above that was not a RPO. that was a RPRO
RUN-PASS-RUN OPTION in that order. not all the time but some.
the Qb is never the first run option in the RPO.
denbrock did the following:
RUN- HB
PASS- JD
RUn-JD in that order of options based on reads for his horizontal RPRO
