If so how do you block it and does mid-line have to be run to the TE side?

yes but you are going to have to break the I. a wing t look will allow you to run the midline away from the te to that three teck. another way to do it is to come out in a full house backfield with a split rec. and a te, most teams will declare the te side as the strength and shift, run the midline backside all night if they do.

You can also run it to the 3 tech. out of the stack I. The second back will be the 2nd tracker of the PSLB to FS and the Tb will run his normal option course. You can still run it out of the I without breaking it, but you may want to cheat the TB's alignment up a bit. This will also help if your QB is calling best option on the LOS. Breaking the I every time you want to run it may become a big tendancy.

Speed option is a great way to get your TB the ball to the weak side of that defense, as well.

If they declare to the TE as stated by tcamp in his post above, run midline to the backside 3 until the cows come home from any of the three formations posted above. Coach Easton
