[QUOTE="1939hotmagic, post: 349819, member: 1792"] (1) Since I'm fairly confident that CPJ doesn't need my input ;), for my entertainment purposes I'd like to see -- as a rare change-of-look -- the A-backs [I]initially [/I]line up behind the B-back, giving an old-school "Capital-I" or "Maryland-I" look before then resetting to their slot positions. Here's a good article: [URL]https://minnesota.247sports.com/Article/Gopher247-reviews-previews-what-exactly-is-this-Maryland-I-143853[/URL] In recent years, Minnesota dusted off this particular I-formation set, and had some success with it. [MEDIA=youtube]c_GvVMr7WWw[/MEDIA] That said, heck -- have a series of four or five plays out of it. Oh, the amusement to see the opponent's defense, and the look on the DC's face, to see a CPJ team break out that formation. Even moreso if a play was actually run out of it. :) [Historical note: In 1950, VMI, coached by young Tom Nugent (who later went on to coach Maryland and FSU), came to Atlanta as a 28-point underdog to Georgia Tech In its second game using this particular I formation, VMI upset Tech 14-13.] (2) What the heck, I'm on a roll.
