In Stowers Spread Option book, he has the backside guard pulling on speed option. Most resources I have don't. From a gun set, is there any reason not to pull him ? Does this change anything on the playside ? *One reason I might do it is that I'm going to run crazy option - & I know Utah pulls the backside guard on their crazy option, so I'm seeing if I can have the same scheme for two differnt plays. Please help with some feedback. Thanks.

Any advice or help you can give would be appreciated. J.U

We do not pull the bsg when we run the speed option. We believe that he won't get there on time to do any good so we just have him cut off backside a gap and get to second level as soon as possible. I have also seen the crazy option run by Bowling Green without the bsg pulling and they had good success with that as well. So it is six in one hand... If you want to pull the guard on both, then by all means go ahead I don't see where it would be detrimental to the success of the speed option.

We run our speed opt from the gun and used to pull the bs guard but as it was said before he cant get there soon enough to get involved with the play. What we did is pull the center and have him pull tight off the veer block by the TE/T (run strong) or T/G (run weak) and inside the DE. We pulled the center to account for the FS. Once we were able to account for the FS the play now became a homerun play. Instead of +5 to +10 yard play it was going the distance by blocking the FS.

I think if my guards were runners, I'd consider pulling the BSG on the crazy option (inside veer w/ a shovel read)....however, my OL has usually been too slow to pull and make a difference. I keep them at home as of now. But, if I get some guards that are more athletic than I have had in the past, I might just mess around with pulling the backside. pdow

We run speed option from gun and under center and have yet to pull a guard. We run triple crazy out of the gun and do not pull a guard. Both were successful. However, we are looking to commit to one system for the coming season. Thanks for all your responses.

Any questions let me know.
