Did you tell them they’re only allowed to run inside zone out of 10 personnel?


What part of generally speaking don’t you understand. When did I ever say you absolutely cannot run IZ with a TE.m? It happens alot I’m sure. But good teams in my experience like Duo or OZ to the TE out or 11. And IZ or counter out of 10.

You’re the one that tried to argue a play couldn’t be inside zone because it was 11 or 12. I just pointed out that you were wrong.

You seem pretty knowledgeable and I don’t want to keep arguing with you. I was already wrong on the RPO and I’m sure I’m reading zone when it may not be on a few of the plays, but several of them are pretty clear inside zone runs.

I don’t care if you admit you were wrong about inside zone and the personnel it’s “generally” run out of. It’s time we both move along.

You haven’t worked with some of the OCs I’ve worked with then. They had my head spinning with all the rules.


I’m curious to know what rules they had that made it confusing. We ran zone schemes when I was in college and it was super easy to remember our assignments. If there are too many situations that change the assignments, then it’s not really a rule and that’s not a good OC running an offense like that.

Said dad why do we always run the same play and get same yards


well if youre talking about this year youre wrong because we've ran a bunch of different run plays this year. not to mention screens of many varieties.

I actually would like them to dial back the playback. a bit and be really good at a few different things than a master of none.

also im all for running the receivers in the run game just as much as the running backs.

The ‘24 Oline was arguably the best on paper and run production still struggled. Gotta be the scheme!

Nice to see y'all agree to disagree. You guys are cheering for the same team. Good banter though for those of us who don't have coaching experience.

More jet sweeps

I hope so. It was our only working running attack against Tech.

I know the "jet sweep" was scorned after Canada's reign, but it can be a valuable part of our rushing attack
