Default For every reaction, there is a reaction

Eric,

I like the option but I think you put the defense at a total disadvantage if you do not allow that player to react to the pitch. In the Shootout scheme, if a ball is transferred anywhere during a play, the defender always has had the option to react to that play.

I know you want that pitch man to be able to get yardage and yes, if the defender is zoning, that particular defender should be okay for that play but the defender has always reacted in the Shootout scheme when the ball transfers.

Just an opinion. Like I said, I like what you're talking about but that's my main concern is putting the defenders at a big disadvantage. You know the D is always at a disadvantage.
