[QUOTE="zhavenor, post: 322759, member: 1541"] I have a play book of bear Bryant from 1975 and he uses the term chop block as a type of block that we would probably use cut block today. The playbook defines it as "Open field bock on men in the secondary by throwing your body (extended at his throat)". I would upload the whole thing but the site says it is too large. I think when some of the coaches use the term they are not trying to say the blocking is illegal it was just the term they learned to call it by. Of course I think some do use it for other purposes and the fans just think all reference to it is illegal because it is the official term for an illegal block. [/QUOTE]
