I don't like the mechanic of dropping the U back with the B on a post. However, it is pretty common in my area. The reasoning behind it is supposed to be better pylon coverage by the LJ. But I think you give up too much in the middle. People who use it claim that the U can still protect the snapper, etc. But my experience is that the U is excited about being back there and doesn't always remember to do his protection thing.
I'd rather have the U in position and give up the pylon occassionally. It seems to me to be a percentage thing. Every single field goal and try will have contact in the middle that the U should be looking at. Just how many close pylon plays to the LJ's side do we have in these situations? 1 in 100, 1 in 500, 1 in 1000?
