a11 Offense - 11 potentially eligible receivers

[TXMike]

Take it to the XFL or pee wee football. This type of "innovation" would be more than welcome there. This is NOT within the spirit of the true game of football. It is easy to be "innovative" when you do not have to worry about the rules. SOme coaches thought it was "innovative" to bring their offense to the sideline on 4th and short from the 50 and in and then rush 11 guys in quickly to the line of scrimmage hoping to catch the defense in the middle of subbing or with wrong personnel so the offense could "trick" them as to their intent. The rulemakers shut this down, rightfully so. The same will happen to the A11 although there is no danger of ever seeing it in college or the pros as the rules already prevent it.
