[QUOTE="takethepoints, post: 67325, member: 265"] On this question, I would advise consulting the GSU and Navy play books already cited here. Playing OL in our system is much, [I]much[/I] more complicated then what you find in other Os. Zone blocking schemes and the blocking schemes used in other spread option schemes really are simple since the backs are reading the initial blocks and reacting to them, In our scheme it is the other way around; the OLs are supposed to make specific blocks on specific plays, blocks that change with every formation and every declaration of the strong side (remember, that happens on every play and nobody knows which side until the QB calls it). I was an OL in high school and college. I couldn't have keep track of what I'm supposed to do from play to play in our O if my life depended on it. Today the main enjoyment I get from Tech games is trying to figure out what the OL is doing from play to play. Good thing we normally get smart kids. And they still miss blocks all the time. [/QUOTE]
