If it matters, we're NCAA, not NF.

But in Texas, we do use LJ in 3-man, along with HL and R. 3-man crews are usually all that's necessary on 7th and 8th grade games. Usually the 9th and JV's have 4 or 5 men.

In those grade levels, it helps to have an official on both sides to help them on the wings (Move back, move up, etc), and most plays are right up the gut or sweeps. I think we'd suffer more missing a wing on a sweep than we'd gain from having a U.
