What do you think of running the Triple at a 3 and 7 technique by running the FB on the Mid-Line path and optioning the 3 for the hand off and the 7 for pitch. How difficult it this to pull off? We have ran the Triple primarily to the SE side because of the 1 Tec.
Need a little more information: What is the defense your looking at (4-3?) What are you trying to run, ISV/OSV ? Need this to give you an intelligent answer, if I'm understanding the question correctly.

After rereading your question, are you trying to run the midline(as that is what it will be if you give to the FB?) Seems to be pretty wierd to me. No offense now, just cant see how your going to release the SG
to the Mike without having too many butts in the hole. What formation are you running ouit of again?

We have been running the Triple to the SE side vs 1 and 5, mostly Four Front Stuff. Block down on 1 FB hit outside cheek of Guard. We want to run the Triple to the TE. We will get mostly 3 and 7. I have in mind to hit theFB over the Center as if running Mid-Line, blocking the Guard and Tackle the same way as IV and reading the 3 for hand off and 7 for pitch. We could see some 5o front and we would double the Nose, read the 4 pitch off 9.
I am not an experienced option coach, but can have you combo/fold the 3 with your SG and ST, have your TE come down on the LB read the 7 for dive, and the pitch off the force man?

If you block it that way would you not need to widen the path of the FB. My concern for that it changing the footwork of the normal play. If the Mid_Line footwork is already taught, would it not bve easier to read the 3&7?
That sounds like GSU's freeze option, but If you want to run the ISV to a 3 all you need to do is double the 3 and read the seven everything else stays the same for the rest of the guys. You don't have anyone on that backer, but most people are thinking 3 yards at least and they believe that the double team will drive into the backers path and you can get more. That is the way we block a 3 tech. We like running the ISV to a 3 tech.

Freeze option uses the midline path for the fb and will read the 3 and pitch off the DE. you need to put the TE and lead back on force and the outsidebacker. It depends on what they are in.
Great play coach.Read the 3-tech for dive and pitch off the 7-tech.Mix it up and read the 3-tech for dive and block out on 7-tech with OT and bring pitch back up the hole for LB(Midline).Double 7-tech reach 3-tech and dive FB at the inside leg of TE.(Outside Veer)
We normally see a 9 tech on our TEs (outside shade) and we run midline as a triple. Read the three tech (we will also run it at a head up 2) like everyone does, the TE inside releases the 9, the tackle does a quick pass set to get the end to rush up the field, then blocks him out. If the dive is taken away, the QB pitches off the OLB.
Another pretty interesting thing that can be done with the midline option vs. a 3 technique tackle in a 4-3 defense is a sort of iso trap. If you have a good runner at quarterback this can be a devastating play for a defense expecting the qb to attack the edge after the midline read. Block it just like the midline option but pull the BSG and have him trap the 3 technique. Then, have the qb ride the fb and follow his but directly through the playside A gap. The fb acts as a lead blocker and the odds of springing the qb into the secondary are pretty high. In some instances, strong safeties see option and fly to the alley right away so your fb may not even have anyone to block until he reaches the free safety, an obvious mismatch.
