This will be the subcategory discussion for CBSMF Rules

The overhead and outward arms only apply to the defense. You can have as many WR's with arms upards as you like.

Yes, what are boat bases?? thanks

When I go to the CBSMF website and try to click on either versions of the rules, nothing happens.

If this is my problem, I would appreciate it if there was another way to get the rules (via email perhaps?).

In the meantime, 2 questions: Is it offense in dark and defense in white and is there a limit to the total number of players?

Thanks for your help.

Joe, I will have something out by the end of the week with the rules. We're gonna be fine-tunning the final copy this week. We need your "eyes" as well to give it one last look-see. We're gonna have about 8 coaches giving it that final look through.

We are putting in the option rule with the full-house backfield and Michael Robertson is writing that part up. Once that is delivered, the rulebook with coaches suggestions will be finished. All we will need to do is do the final edit and once done, I will upload it to the CBSMF website.

Answer to questions:
Offense is in dark and the defense is in white.
60 player roster limit

games already been played if the rule set is not even complete???

Are those contests scrimmages??

[Reginald Rutledge]

started before April because of several reasons. Number 1, ERob, the commissioner is pretty organized and had already gotten his people in order. They are all paid up for the season.

Also, they have 10 plus years of Shootout Rules experience and was the driving force behind the option rule. They authored that rule along with Michael Robertson (SWC) so they were well-prepared to get their conference rolling.

Plus, they will be doing something with ESPN and their time is very important to make sure that shoot works well for them. It would have conflicted with the start of their regular season so they wanted to start early.

Right now, all I know is Walter Payton leads the NCAA in rushing and could be in contention for a Heisman Trophy. I know that East Carolina is 1-0-0 and leading the PAC10 behind Coach Rick Garrison who seems wired and pumped up!

Some conferences will start earlier that others. But the key is the conferences that are still needing "Jamborees" to get accustom to the rules, we are here to help. I know you guys in the BAM have some knowledge but now we've got to make sure Geno (Big 12), G Hardmon (Big 10), K Boddie (ACC), and Joel P (SEC) and Biglock (Independent) get any necessary help they need.

The actual ruleset will be out Friday but most of what you played with in the BAM will still apply here. The only major difference is within the option play and Michael Robertson is writing the "language" as we speak.
