motion

[ajmc]

I'm not sure, Robert, if we're addressing the same question. The original posting declares, "A lines up at wide out as a back,he sets for 2 sec." Since he's declared to be "a back" I'm presuming it is understood he does NOT penetrate the waistline.....

My suggestion is that once a player establishes himself as, either a lineman or a back, that remains his status until he re-sets in a different position which would change his status. After his position is established, his going in motion does not change the status he assumed when setting.

The purpose of a team setting and then pausing is to establish their positions, and by extension, eligibility.
