Unusual formation

I would play some type of quarter, quarter, half. Man up the TE. Put the Strong side corner over #1 and he has deep third or (fourth), have the SS collision and jam either #2 or #3 depending on tendency and width - then cover the flat, etc, have a DE or OLB type collision and jam #4 or #3 - then defend curl, possibly have the PS ILB widen just a little and cover hook, have the BS ILB hook to curl, and the FS deep 1/3 or 1/4. What do you think?

SPROUT,

JUST ANOTHER VARIATION OF THE QUAD FORMATION. I HAVE THE BEST LUCK WITH THESE WIERD FORMATIONS WE DON'T SEE OFTEN, OR NEVER HAD SEEN PREVIOUSLY, BY JUST MANNING UP STRAIGHT ACROSS THE BOARD WITH SOME VERY SIMPLE RULES THAT ARE NEVER TO BE BROKEN:

1. CB TAKES #1 RECEIVER ( THIS CASE THE FB TYPE THAT YOU DESCRIBE) IN TIGHT MAN!
2. SS TAKES # 2 RECEIVER IN TIGHT MAN
3. LB TAKES # 3 RECEIVER IN TITE MAN
4. FS CHEATS UP IN PSL BUT STAYS IN MOF! ON THE SNAP HE JUMPS THE # 4!
5. WILL LB HAS BACKSIDE RECEIVER AND PLAYS HIM IN LOOSE MAN (SITS OFF 4-5 YDS )

*** TIGHT MAN = ROLLED UP HARD WITH INSIDE LEVERAGE ONLY PLAYING BUMP AND RUN AND DOING THEIR DARDNEST TO NOT LET THE RECEIVER GET OFF THE JAM! ***


Coaching Point: May not be the greatest way to defend, but it gives you a solid plan to have ready when you come against this wierd formation baloney. Your defensive captain should recognize any strange formation immediately. When he does this for us, he immediately calls out 99-99!!! This tells the defense to scrap the huddle call and immediately go to their man in tight man coverage! Just our way, but it has saved us from looking and acting like we are lost when this scenario occurs, shows we are prepared with a plan, and really is quite effective until you can get the adjustment made.
