Coaches,
In another post, there is conversation about the passing tree route. I'd like to get some more conversation on this.....
How many coaches use this? What are the pros and cons? I am not completely sold on it. One one hand, all routes are tagged and kids (by the nature of their alignment or position) know exactly what to run. On another hand, there are not enought numbers to cover what we want to do. There will be passing plays in terms of "concepts". In my background a slant always had an out or bubble route that was associated with the slant. When I think of the traditional waggle pass, 4 guys need to be in the 4 different areas designed by that term, waggle. WAGGLE surely seems to be a better way to communicate these routes instead of tagging four receivers to run an out, post corner, bs post and bs drag respectively.
Then again, calling a play "all 9's" or 9999 is pretty simple, too, if you want 4 verticals.
