Title: Five Man Mechanics
Post by: TIGERBAIT on September 09, 2011, 01:04:16 PM

What are the initial keys for the two end men and the back judge when the offense has two wide receivers on each side.

BJ - inside receiver on LJ side
L - 2 receivers on his side
Post snap will move to zone coverage

That is my understanding

Well, the initial keys are run/pass based on line play. But I know what you're asking. ;)

Ohio has its own mechanics book, like some other states, but in this instance coverage is the same as NFHS. For twins, BJ has the inside WR/TE on LJ side. If the pass is longer than 5 yards we switch to zone coverage.
