I was going to post on the option play but did a search and found this one already started; but quite awhile back.
What are your stop rules when running the option? If it is a true triple option you first have the dive to consider. At what point do you make the decision on the dive. I've been running the board for 1 second. At that point the decision must be made to give to the dive back or have the qb keep and continue.
How do you line the dive back and qb up to start the play. I put the dive back right up behind the lineman; a few yards back so he's not stacked. The qb goes just off his rear, inside base corner angled in the direction of the play. The pitch man is lined up in a good pitch relationship to the the qb.
If the dive option is not executed the board is turned back on and the qb continues with the ball.
At any point the board can be turned off to execute the pitch. The board must be turned off before contact on the qb and the pitch man must have good pitch relationship. I do not use a stick for the pitch.
I'm interested in any thoughts, suggestions, or other 'options.'
