Near ear

I'm hoping Coach Cambell responds because I would like more clarification on the near ear rule...

To try and answer your question, the near ear is dependent upon the point of attack. If the play is going to an area between the same side B gap to the opposite side D gap then the T's near ear would be toward the 7 tech, unless there was a Deuce call. If the play is going to the same side C or D gap then the T's near ear would be toward the 3 tech unless there was a Trey call. This is the general way the rule works, with exceptions... With an inside zone the near ear is always playside no matter if you are on the tight side or open side. With an outsize zone the near ear is also always playside, but the landmark for helmet placement is the outside ear.

Coaches, please step in here and clarify as needed.
