a11offense.com says it's approved in 40 states. What does that mean? Do the rules of football change from state to state? Would it be legal in the NCAA? How about the NFL?
- breily 18y agoI imagine the main issue is the number of eligible receivers different leagues allow. In the NCAA offensive linemen cannot be receivers, and in the NFL, you have to have at least 7 players on the line of scrimmage, and only 2 of these are eligible (basically linemen aren't eligible). There are probably similar rules in the high school leagues for the other 10 states.
- DocSavage 18y agoIf this became widespread, I would think it hurts smaller schools with less talent. Think about schools like USC that have a dozen speedy All-American playmakers in their three-deep. It's bad enough trying to defend them with the current # of ball-eligible players. Can't see why the bulk of teams would want to allow this.
