    A1: Big fan of the mentality from lose ground to gain ground. Get down the line of scrimmage and rip backside arm to front side shoulder of the defender #hogfbchat
  • CoachOrtizOL Jan 28 @ 9:17 PM EST
    A1: Big proponent of FTTG and owning the angle needed to secure the block. Work to seal the backside gap with proper feet and force applied. #HogFBChat

  • Martidou14092 Jan 28 @ 9:18 PM EST
    A1 on the backside of wide zone we use a rip to reach technique. With a bucket lead footwork.#hogfbchat
  • mt_stjohn Jan 28 @ 9:18 PM EST
    A1. Teach it just like a reach block. Drive off backside catch with playside getting eyes to outside armpit. Own that angle #hogfbchat
  • Coach_MarkBrown Jan 28 @ 9:18 PM EST
    A1: Can vary from player to player. We teach a 45 degree angle, but it all depends on the aiming point for taking over the block and get the DL cut off. #hogfbchat
  • qb_coach9 Jan 28 @ 9:18 PM EST
    A1) Open flat, rip opposite arm and cross over. Climb up to BSB. #hogfbchat
    In reply to @CoachDingus
  • nickzaji Jan 28 @ 9:18 PM EST
    A1 for us thats only happening on MidZone so I teach rip to cut off. Bucket step with a backside hand ripping through to get the DL on your back #hogfbchat
  • Coach_McKenzie Jan 28 @ 9:18 PM EST
    Jermaine McKenzie, Bishop Brady High School, Concord, NH- HC/OC #HogFBChat
  • FISTFootball Jan 28 @ 9:18 PM EST
    A1: I allow my guys to use whatever force/angle is needed to get the block done. They can determine everything based on DL’s alignment, how the opposition plays, and what the play call is. Their aiming point is generally V of the neck to the playside number. #hogfbchat
  • CoachShiffman - Moderator Jan 28 @ 9:18 PM EST
    A1: don’t really like to “lose ground” we always taught a true outside zone step and work to get him cut off. If you can’t make it then do what you can to “box him out” #hogfbchat

    A1: Our backside/cutoffs are a big area of opportunity for us to improve on this year. Being only my 3rd year in the WT I’ve been focusing on FS/POA. Overall we’ve been using a Rip to run/snake tech. #hogfbchat
  • coachelman Jan 28 @ 9:18 PM EST
    A1: we use dip, rip, and run. Seems to be easy for the guys to understand, how to get to play side of defender. #hogfbchat
  • fritts57 Jan 28 @ 9:18 PM EST
    A1: skate crossover. Aim for PlayStation knee. Same as we would if we were running wide zone. Will cut it if need, same steps just add rip and roll. #hogfbchat
  • CoachShemby Jan 28 @ 9:19 PM EST
    A1- reach, rip and run. If hes a stud (and my tackle is athletic enough) I fold block a 3 tech. -#hogfbchat

    A1: Back in my triple option days is was 45-60-90 steps. Don’t really full scoop now. #hogfbchat
    In reply to @CoachDingus
  • TheCoachWoolley Jan 28 @ 9:19 PM EST
    A1) Think you have to give your players a few options and let them choose what is best for them and whatis best bs player they are trying to block. Different techniques needed for a reader vs an attacking dl. #hogfbchat
  • CoachLA73 Jan 28 @ 9:19 PM EST
    Backside Scoop blocks emphasis on outside zone would be tackle gains depth to replace the guard on an angle to reach 3 tech. Guard takes hard playside step but chips through 3 tech to slow up so tackle can overtake. All about trusting blocking your area and finishing #hogfbchat
  • CoachBennett32 Jan 28 @ 9:19 PM EST
    A1: we use a “ball, ball, vertical” progression. First two steps through the back of the football, 3rd step we get vertical to cut off the defender preferably to cut down the defender #hogfbchat
  • Warhogs56 Jan 28 @ 9:19 PM EST
    A1) the play; our angle is dependent on the shade of the DT and the location of the LB; footwork = drive/catch. #hogfbchat
    In reply to @CoachDingus
  • SenorBlazer Jan 28 @ 9:19 PM EST
    Q1: #hogfbchat drive/catch through our appropriate angle through our strike point. The wider the defender, the more force gets put through the ground, the deeper the catch foot lands. Should be square to our angle via midline by the first DC. Then own through angle.
    In reply to @CoachDingus
  • CoachMcCrayAPG Jan 28 @ 9:20 PM EST
    A1: If their scooping our splits between those two better be tighter. 6 inch reach step and staying square. Don’t like them to turn their shoulders or work sideways too long on a DL with quick get off and violent hands. #HOGFBCHAT

  • coachfisher_rp Jan 28 @ 9:20 PM EST
    That’s how I interpret a scoop. So backside, I would teach a bucket step, like OZ and work to get across their body to engage #hogfbchat
    In reply to @MrG7372
  • martinalvdly Jan 28 @ 9:20 PM EST
    Q1: What is the footwork you use for backside scoop blocks? Bear crawl, 90-45-vertical, etc. A1: Open up and reach one man over or pull through center. #hogfbchat
  • CoachKnippa Jan 28 @ 9:20 PM EST
    A1: We will go 45 degrees then work vertical, if the guy is playing a 4 or a 4i then we will scramble ( bear crawl ) then work up to our feet. #hogfbchat
  • Coach_Sneed_ Jan 28 @ 9:20 PM EST
    A1 Inside foot steps flat; Backside crossover step; backside drag hand ripping through, apply pressure against pressure. Playside hand stays free and running with it. #hogfbchat
  • CoachHughes76 Jan 28 @ 9:20 PM EST

  • xCoachCasey Jan 28 @ 9:20 PM EST
    A1) "Kick the Bucket" - drive force from opposite foot, allow athlete to be creative and making judgement on how far back that foot needs to go. Super aggressive allow - teach the dip/rip fight up field during pressure to pressured necessary. #ScooponPower #GapScheme #hogfbchat

  • CoachMWeber Jan 28 @ 9:21 PM EST
    A1: Reach and rip. First step is most important as you have to leverage the defender. If you are working with someone split their footwork. #hogfbchat
  • coach_whitaker Jan 28 @ 9:21 PM EST
    A1: Depends on alignment. Typically flat step, rip to grab grass, pin on back shoulder. #hogfbchat
  • JacobAlford50 Jan 28 @ 9:21 PM EST
    A1: Depends on alignment of the defender. Generally speaking I use the “bucket step” just as terminology. We don’t really want to lose ground. Just want to drive off of the opposite foot and own whatever angle will help us achieve the scoop. #hogfbchat
    In reply to @CoachDingus
  • Coach_VanHorn Jan 28 @ 9:21 PM EST
    A1: Back in our triple option days we certainly “scooped” everything backside as you can see from our playbook sheets. Now we treat that word like a curse word. We step flat and “reach” the guy in the next gap. If no lineman is present we work vertical to backer. #hogfbchat
  • fritts57 Jan 28 @ 9:21 PM EST
    A1: skate crossover. Aim for PlaySide knee. Same as we would if we were running wide zone. Will cut it if need, same steps just add rip and roll. #hogfbchat
  • CoachBrassard Jan 28 @ 9:21 PM EST
    A1: first step is 45 or more depending on alignment but then we are throwing the backside arm for a rip like Coach Martin #hogfbchat
    • Martidou14092 Jan 28 @ 9:18 PM EST
      A1 on the backside of wide zone we use a rip to reach technique. With a bucket lead footwork.#hogfbchat
  • Coach_McKenzie Jan 28 @ 9:21 PM EST
    A1. Rip to reach with a lateral step #HogFBChat

  • Coach_Winland Jan 28 @ 9:22 PM EST
    #HogFBChat Q1: We didn’t scoop backside, we went with a BS double team. I don’t like using scoops with high school kids or younger bc they tend to feel like they have to aim behind them and unless it’s a vertical pass set, I didn’t want our guys giving ground
  • coachthornton12 Jan 28 @ 9:22 PM EST
    A1: depends on technique of defender whether it’s a cut or not. If we can cut him off we’d rather do that than cut him. Slight bucket with second foot at a 45 degree angle to get OL backside shoulder in playside arm pit of the DL #HogFBChat

  • kickandswab Jan 28 @ 9:23 PM EST

  • 11across Jan 28 @ 9:23 PM EST
    A1: Depends on backside of what? We ran a toss sweep and wouldn't block b-gap DL or wider. For power (pulling-G), it depends on who my tackle is. Have taught top and also a bear-crawl cut-off. #hogfbchat
  • CoachKnippa Jan 28 @ 9:23 PM EST
    A1 cont: we do this more when we are running power for BST and TE running GT will work a drill with a dummy, firing out low and hitting the dummy with our outside shoulder for 4 steps and working to our feet. If we can’t seem to get that done then we just cut him down #hogfbchat
  • JUSTINSMITH78 Jan 28 @ 9:23 PM EST

    In reply to @CoachDingus
  • B1GD66 Jan 28 @ 9:23 PM EST
    Depends on the technique of the DL. But typically if it's an inside technique on the BS(1 or 4i), we take a hard lateral bucket step towards the playside then a 45 degree step towards the playside shoulder then trying to drive through to our finish.#hogfbchat
    In reply to @CoachDingus
  • Coach_Lorenz Jan 28 @ 9:23 PM EST

    Q2 is coming right up! #hogfbchat
  • CoachStough Jan 28 @ 9:24 PM EST
    A1) It’s all about locating your aiming points presnap. If I’m scooping or overtaking someone my first step is at the far armpit and my second step is vertical, splitting their numbers (ideally). 1/2 #hogfbchat
  • CoachStough Jan 28 @ 9:24 PM EST
    A1) cont…depending on the scheme I’ve used “bucket & rip” + “Give ground to gain ground.” However recently I’ve been trying to stay away from that verbiage. It tends to send the wrong message. We want to ATTACK our aiming points. Get downhill towards the LOS ASAP. 2/2 #hogfbchat
  • bmorrisoncoach Jan 28 @ 9:24 PM EST
    A1 - reach step, sprint hard and low trying ripping and running feet to get our pads past the DL heels, don't give ground #hogfbchat

  • coachphope Jan 28 @ 9:26 PM EST
    A1: I like for the OL to lose a little bit of ground to gain ground. goal is to finish on the playside of the defender to get a cutoff. It's safer than cutting and there's no "friendly fire" in cutting one of your own guys. #hogfbchat
  • Coach_Kirk_67 Jan 28 @ 9:27 PM EST
    A1) Certainly the scheme dictates this. MZ and IZ - Get hat play side. Footwork always adjusts based on how tight the 3 Or 4i is. Outside zone and speed option type plays allow cut opportunities #hogfbchat
  • CoachStough Jan 28 @ 9:27 PM EST
    A1) cont pt2…”Far toe to far toe” has worked in the past for the first step as well. #hogfbchat

  • CoachBennett32 Jan 28 @ 9:28 PM EST
    A2: depends on the play, pass pro we are going to work together and pass that thing off. Inside zone to the stunt the tackle will pick up the OLB and the guard will take the end. IZ away from it, we’ll block that sparking end because he gets on our tracks #hogfbchat

  • coachelman Jan 28 @ 9:28 PM EST
    A2: if DE is on our “rail” that is our block. Our right scheme is always a stay cutoff block, so b/s tackle would put back hand on the DE, w/ eyes up. If DE threatens gap, T stays with him. #HogFBChat

  • CoachMcCrayAPG Jan 28 @ 9:34 PM EST

    A2. Pass pro is unaffected as we attempt to be gap sound with the slide or have a rb accounting for the OLB run game can be affected on the backside of zone but we teach a thick thru sift technique to counter the stunt. #hogfbchat
  • CoachDingus - Moderator Jan 28 @ 9:35 PM EST
    Q3: With slower hitting runs in gun/pistol, are the backside cuts still as effective as they would be under center? #hogfbchat
  • kickandswab Jan 28 @ 9:35 PM EST
    A2: IZ or Power/Counter the BST will pick up the DE. We do have a tag where the BST will drop step and pick up the OLB. Then we read the DE. #hogfbchat
  • BigCity50 Jan 28 @ 9:35 PM EST
    Outside Zone we will take that horizontal step & cut him(bear crawl through his thigh) & then climb to the backer. Clip, Cut, Go to LB. #hogfbchat
  • CoachSimard Jan 28 @ 9:35 PM EST
    A2: Assuming passpro - we really focused on 1. communication ('Switch' call) 2. drag hand this past yr. (comms BOTH verbal and physical - PUSH if DE coming inside) and NEVER CHASE. Chaser's get called out on film. w/in-game tech - they'll get exploited. ⚒️🐗⚒️ #hogfbchat
  • CoachStough Jan 28 @ 9:35 PM EST
    A2) Depends on the scheme. We have rules to take care of most scenarios. If it’s a gap scheme take the first threat. If it’s zone, identify covered vs uncovered & if there’s a combo (if so, to who?). Same tends to apply to pass pro too. Trust your rules & communicate! #hogfbchat

  • Coach_Kirk_67 Jan 28 @ 9:36 PM EST
    A2) If you want to hold open the cutback I think sifting is the way to go. If you have a runner at QB and want to let him carry the ball in zone read than, the L block is a good option to block the QB player #HOGFBCHAT

    #HOGFBCHAT if a DL can get cut backside and still tackle your Runner, you need new runners.

  • CoachBennett32 Jan 28 @ 9:37 PM EST
    A3: backside cut offs are much more effective under center because they hit so quick, if you even get a piece, you’ve still got a shot. You have to be very precise and not miss out of gun and pistol IMO #hogfbchat
  • coachphope Jan 28 @ 9:37 PM EST
    A2: Recognize the DE's alignment. If it is tighter than normal, he's going inside. Have the tackle run to the 2nd level if the DE disappears inside to the guard. Guard will keep running to get leverage on slant. #hogfbchat
  • CoachDFrank Jan 28 @ 9:37 PM EST
    A3: ABSOLUTELY. Cut blocks executed effectively are always good ideas. If it's too slow you need to find more tenacious OL and Faster RBs #hogfbchat
  • CoachBDud Jan 28 @ 9:37 PM EST

  • JCrocker68 Jan 28 @ 9:37 PM EST
    A3: I think so bc if we are running mid zone to a shade 5 and I keep cutting that bs 3 tech he will eventually quit squeezing his down block-in turn helping set up our inside trap! #hogfbchat
  • Coach_Goudeau Jan 28 @ 9:37 PM EST
    A2) On playside of gap run, our tackle is going to block down on the squeezing end and we would be digging out scraping backer on power and trapping PSLB on counter. In option, we’re going to load for PSLB and still pitch off next #hogfbchat

    A3 I would say yes. Maybe more so since slower timing allows lbs more time to overplay and qb less likely to take rb off his aiming point (ps hip of c in iz) #hogfbchat

  • BigCity50 Jan 28 @ 9:38 PM EST
    I like the vertical set we call it patriot. If backer walks down shows that he is coming we will make a ghost call. The OT will pick up back and the OG will pick up the DE. C will pick up the DT. The F will keep eyes on the Mike if he tries to come. #hogfbchat

    A2: lock the BST on the DE and read the Will #hogfbchat
    In reply to @CoachShiffman
  • Coach_MarkBrown Jan 28 @ 9:38 PM EST
    A3: I like them because it allows the defense to flow and once they over commit then you can hit the cut back as the OL walls off the DL and LB. We teach our RBs to press the heels of the OL and find the hole or ride the wall. #hogfbchat
  • CoachRmcD60 Jan 28 @ 9:38 PM EST
    A3 yes That’s the beauty of IZ it uses the D pursuit against them. They fast flow and bam we blow it out the back door no matter under C or the gun it’s a dangerous run #hogfbchat
  • coach_vangen Jan 28 @ 9:38 PM EST
    A3: I'm straight up nervous about backside cutting from under center because I don't want that mess near my QBs legs. If we have trouble blocking a dude, we will either double him or read him. #hogfbchat

  • SenorBlazer Jan 28 @ 9:39 PM EST
    A3: #hogfbchat yes absolutely. Since cutting is my last ditch effort to block a DL, if he makes the play STILL, good on him. That’s a helluva play. We need to fix our scheme or run something else to slow that guy down!
    In reply to @CoachDingus
  • CoachMcCrayAPG Jan 28 @ 9:39 PM EST

  • CoachJorgy Jan 28 @ 9:39 PM EST
    #hogfbchat in our gap scheme rule based run system we never cut. More of a mentality for our guys. Cuts work for some teams and I get that but it’s just not us but we would rather put people on the ground by punching with great technique/driving/doubling.

  • CoachStough Jan 28 @ 9:39 PM EST
    A3) In pistol/gun running an OZ/Toss scheme I pretty much only allow the OT to cut if there’s a BS B-gap defender. Otherwise we need bodies moving playside & up to LVL2. We don’t cut BS on Power or IZ…only BS on OZ and some 3-step pass pro stuff. #hogfbchat

  • Eaglemountie1 Jan 28 @ 9:39 PM EST
    A3: Cont. If we are being run down it means the back isn't good enough or the timing and placement of the snap is not up to par with what is needed to proper run the scheme. #hogfbchat
  • AdamHite55 Jan 28 @ 9:39 PM EST
    A3: We don't teach cut blocks anymore because they have to be so fast hitting in high school. At the college level I think cut blocks are still very effective when it comes to outside zone and speed option. Sets the tone of the game and makes the DL pick themselves up #hogfbchat

  • CoachB79 Jan 28 @ 9:39 PM EST
    A3: It’s not so much a problem for us since we run both UC and 3y pistol with the FB @ 5 or 6y. If we’re getting overly aggressive BS players then we’ll dig into our tool box and use fold blocks. #hogfbchat
  • coachbrownrigg Jan 28 @ 9:39 PM EST

  • coachelman Jan 28 @ 9:39 PM EST
    A3: even as an under center team we don’t cut a lot. Only when a play goes wide do we cut the interior guys. Probably wouldnt cut a lot in gun either because of the nature of the play. Sometimes cut if quick pads pro. #hogfbchat
  • coach_whitaker Jan 28 @ 9:39 PM EST
    A3: In my experience cut blocks are as effective as the teaching. The better you can teach, drill, and rep it the better they will be. When done right yes they are still very effective. #hogfbchat
  • CoachVerstegen Jan 28 @ 9:39 PM EST

  • Coach_Marrs Jan 28 @ 9:40 PM EST
    A3) I think they are less effective, but the backs ability to see the block set up and the threat of a cutback is more effective. Now you can threaten the entire def front to play their correct tech and assignment. We only cut on bs as a very last resort #hogfbchat
  • xCoachCasey Jan 28 @ 9:40 PM EST
    A3) I do not teach backside cuts! because if they miss the initial launch (which in my opinion happens a lot at the high school level), the play is over. VS. scooping/bucket step allows them to set their own angle and fight through a pressure to pressure phase. #hogfbchat

  • MilbyBuffsOL Jan 28 @ 9:40 PM EST
    A3: yes and no. Never met a DL that liked to pick himself up, but he's got a lot more time to still be in the play on the slower hitting runs. We've gotten away from the cut except for the RB blocking in pass pro or as a lead blocker #hogfbchat

    Depends on the front. We will widen the gaps and make it easier. #hogfbchat
  • coachfisher_rp Jan 28 @ 9:40 PM EST
    A3: I don’t find IZ or OZ to be any slower/faster under center or in the gun. We teach backside cuts on OZ to remove a tackler and give the back someone to cut back on #hogfbchat
  • qb_coach9 Jan 28 @ 9:40 PM EST

    Line is as much mental as it is physical. Even the baddest boys are going to slowdown and hesitate after getting cut a few times. Anytime the D-line hesitates it creates opportunities no matter what the scheme (unless you’re running a screen or trapping) #Hogfbchat

  • Eaglemountie1 Jan 28 @ 9:41 PM EST

  • Coach_Kirk_67 Jan 28 @ 9:42 PM EST

  • jcsecgsu Jan 28 @ 9:48 PM EST
    #HOGFBCHAT a mix. If it has a common name I call it that. Last year we ran the single wing, so typically every team played it the same or adjusted their fronts to look like the same thing every week.
  • SenorBlazer Jan 28 @ 9:48 PM EST
    Q4: #hogfbchat 40s for any 4 man front(2 DTs) Over and under for alignment. 3 man front is 50’s. 5-0-5 tech.

    A4: Simpler the better. Even, odd, stack, or something crazy. #hogfbchat
  • coach_gillhouse Jan 28 @ 9:48 PM EST
    We call odd, even, or stack (to call 3-3). Other than individual lineman will call out techniques if they are covered. We are usually more concerned with where the d linemen are so we know what gaps to hit especially for pin and pull #hogfbchat
  • kickandswab Jan 28 @ 9:48 PM EST
    A4: We just identify odd or even. That’s Simple and tells them all they need to know. #hogfbchat
  • JCrocker68 Jan 28 @ 9:48 PM EST
    A4: neither- center calls out his block and others make their calls based off him regardless of the front. #hogfbchat

  • chrisvIQtory Jan 28 @ 9:49 PM EST
    A4: HAVE to say the front. Always felt like saying just “4-4” or “4-3” doesn’t tell what alignments the defense is in. A nose in a 0 is a lot different than a nose in a 1, etc. #hogfbchat
  • MilbyBuffsOL Jan 28 @ 9:49 PM EST
    A4: even or odd. Naming the fronts anything specific got to be too much for everybody. #hogfbchat
  • CoachVerstegen Jan 28 @ 9:49 PM EST
    A4: We don't communicate fronts so much as we focus on shades as that determines a variety of blocks (influencing, fold or scoop, cross blocks, etc.) #hogfbchat
    In reply to @CoachShiffman
  • CoachMcCrayAPG Jan 28 @ 9:49 PM EST
    A4: They call everything an even or odd front. They don’t too much care where the 2nd level is just want to know who their doubling with this week. Blocking the 2nd level for us is taught by gap responsibility, DL goes away blow up the run through on your track. #HogFBChat
    In reply to @CoachShiffman
  • AdamHite55 Jan 28 @ 9:49 PM EST
    A4: Over, Under, Odd. We are spending time this off-season looking for different was to simplify it for our players so they can communicate better to the coaches what they are seeing, because our line doesn't really learn formations or know where the strength is. #hogfbchat

      A4: we identify the front with the number of d line men first and then how the linebackers are aligned. Split/stack. So example would be 4 split or 3 stack
      In reply to @CoachShiffman
  • martinalvdly Jan 28 @ 9:50 PM EST
    Q4: How do you name/communicate your fronts? Do you say "4-4" or do you say "Over G" or "Eagle"? A4: As coaches ussualy stick with the old 3-3, 3-4, 4-3, etc. For the kids Center makes even vs odd call and is never wrong we will block what he calls. #hogfbchat
  • COACHeDOBBINS Jan 28 @ 9:50 PM EST

  • Eaglemountie1 Jan 28 @ 9:51 PM EST
    A4: Our RG, who is center of our UBSW, makes a call along with our Blocking Backs cadence to identify the front and change the blocking scheme accordingly. No official title given to the fronts, all that matters is the call and number of DL. Calls always make us right #hogfbchat
  • Coach_Kirk_67 Jan 28 @ 9:51 PM EST
    A4) I believe less is more. I like to have the center make a one word front call and we had a nice naming system for that this year which allowed us to play faster #hogfbchat
  • CoachStough Jan 28 @ 9:51 PM EST
    A4) We just communicate whether it’s an odd or even front. We say “30” for even and “40” for odd. If it’s unique we’ll call it specifically: “Stack” “4-3” #hogfbchat
  • CoachShiffman - Moderator Jan 28 @ 9:51 PM EST
    #hogfbchat sorry, I love this scene! Great lesson for football. If it bleeds you can kill it!

  • BivinsCraig Jan 28 @ 9:51 PM EST
    A4 odd or even and technique numbers. Keep it as simple as possible. My guys dont need to know defensive philosophy, they need to know where they line up in order to execute their blocking rules. #hogfbchat

  • CoachBrassard Jan 28 @ 9:51 PM EST
    A4: odd/even based on covered or uncovered C, the rest is just covered/uncovered rules and identifying the read...unless it is a 3-4 and for that we have a few adjustments #hogfbchat
  • B1GD66 Jan 28 @ 9:51 PM EST
    A4. We usually just call the odd or even. We will identify them further if needed for purposes like identifying the Mike. For example, identifying them as a "stack". #hogfbchat
    In reply to @CoachShiffman
  • CoachVerstegen Jan 28 @ 9:51 PM EST
    A4: Actually... the only defense we'll identify is a 3-3 stack.. as that changes our double teams a bit #hogfbchat #mybad

  • CoachBDud Jan 28 @ 9:52 PM EST
    A4: I keep it simple. Basic Defensive structure... 4-3, 4-4, 3-4, 3-5. and how the DL aligns strong/weak. I really focus more on how they align to formations than anything. #hogfbchat

  • OK_CoachBelieve Jan 28 @ 9:52 PM EST
    A4: We keep it real simple. Covered or uncovered. That is it. Nothing else. We have blocking rules for each play. The defense can line up any way they want. We will rep our offensive blocking scheme. #HogFBChat
    In reply to @CoachShiffman
  • CoachGusSmith1 Jan 28 @ 9:53 PM EST
    A4: I know I’m being a tool answering my own question, but what we do is ID the defense from guard to guard. DL alignment even = C uncovered odd = C covered bear = C/G LB alignment split = no LB over C stack = LB over C #hogfbchat

  • Coach_Marrs Jan 28 @ 9:53 PM EST
    A4) I wanna improve this for our kids this year. Mostly been just Odd or Even, but I hate the KISS method. Loathe it. Kids aren’t stupid, they will learn what’s important to them. We put a lot on our skinny kids, and I want to do the same to our big boys. #hogfbchat
  • coach_vangen Jan 28 @ 9:53 PM EST
    A4: We look pretty comical because Everytime they change it, the whole line starts chattering about what it us and starts holding up fingers to each other and to me so everyone is on the same page. We probably look like chirping birds around a bush but it's effective #hogfbchat

    A4: 4-2, 4-4, etc. Our OL coach does a good job of teaching our kids. He recently just took a page from Rick Trickett’s book (Complete OL, I would recommend it) and has our DC coach our OL on defensive scheme, fronts, and what is trying to be accomplished once a week. #hogfbchat

    A4: Odd, Even, Bear. Add "stacks" to it if there is an odd number (1 or 3) LBs in the box. It's how the OL and coaches communicate the front. #hogfbchat
  • CoachLA73 Jan 28 @ 9:55 PM EST
    If he is head up on the guard I would say hand so u dont get caught up to much on the 3 tech because his alignment makes it so we have to take a great angle to complete the backside cutoff. #hogfbchat
    In reply to @Margoyis72, @BIGGUNONE
  • CoachGusSmith1 Jan 28 @ 9:55 PM EST
    When we get to the line, the Center talks first by calling out the front. Every possible front in football: “Even Split” (4-4 look) “Odd split” (3-4) “Even Stack” (4-3) “Odd Stack” (3-5) “Bear Stack” (5-3) “Bear Split” (5-2) #hogfbchat

    A4: 'Odd' or 'Even'. Center makes the call, then additional calls off of that. (It's tough to find a dude that's smart - film study, vocal, physical (can handle a nasty NG) AND snap gun. This yr I had a really good one. Ideally they're developed in lower levels. ⚒️🐗⚒️ #hogfbchat

    A4) When scouting and meeting we can get more specific with over, under, solid, 55, 44. On the field more in terms of odd/even with the center then work out with calls from there. #hogfbchat
    In reply to @CoachShiffman
  • JDFreeman54 Jan 28 @ 10:37 PM EST

    A1) Lots it factors but I think for zone team aiming point should be backside hand through playside shoulder of defender. Get the idea of getting your entire body in front to cut him off. Then you can either Box Out or Wheel Back if they’re scraping over the top. #hogfbchat
