I don't think there will be any changes in the game of football because of this formation. Regardless of what number the players wear, you still need the skilled players to be able to run the spread offense. This formation will rely on those players also being pass blockers. I can't speak for CA, but in MD this formation wouldn't survive the preseason without legitimate pass and run blocking. I will also add that officiating with this formation is no big deal either. We deal with it all the time in youth football where they don't use the numbering system at all. The only issue is that quite often you will miss an ineligible downfield. I'm sure this has already happened with KB's team, He keeps saying that he was not penalized all year for ineligible downfield. I can only say no ****. That doesn't mean it didn't happen and that is a problem at the varsity level. I would love to see a complete and good quality game film of one of those games, not the parent tapes he keeps posting where you really can't see what is going on.
