Player Numbering
I think this is very creative! I must applaud Coach Bryan and his staff's creativity!
It does bring out a few contridictions in the rules.
From the 2007 NCAA Rules:
Rule 1.4.1 states the numbering system is STRONGLY Recommended.
Rule 1.4.2 states 5 players number 50-79 must be on the LOS, but their is NO Requirement that #50 could not be the END.
Rule 7.1.3.a.4.c assumes all linemen between the ends are numbered between 50-79, but Rule 1.4.1 states that numbering system is strongly recommended.
Let's assume the rule is changed to require players be numbered bewteen 50-79. Does this mean the A-11 cannot be used. No it does not!
Rules do not state minimum or maximum required OL split. OL could be foot to foot or 10 yds. This does not change the A-11 CONCEPT.
