[QUOTE="Skeptic, post: 412275, member: 2175"] As a high schooler I had two years experience attempting cut blocks. I always threw it too early. The result was that my target stepped over me and put his high beams on the runner. Contrary to our critics, you don't throw the block at the knees -- or I wasn't taught that -- but at the thigh. (I don't know that this was sportsmanship as much as reality: the lower you throw the thing, the easier it is to step out of.) If you're good at it -- as we were in 2014 particularly, two things happen: the defender gets his hands down to fight you off, and he still goes down. (Until I moved and lost the cable DVR I watched the Orange Bowl several times; it was a coaching clinic on cuts.) We did not do that very well in 2017, and it seemed that D linemen sometimes took a quick half step back on the snap to avoid it. But schedule and all, I am optimistic. [/QUOTE]
