the "DP"????

[Dakota]

In ASA, DP = Designated Player; DEFO = Defense Only.

On this web site, Gulf Coast Blue Handouts are two papers on the ASA DP/DEFO rule, which is basically the same as the NFHS Flex rule and the NCAA DP/TP rule. One of these articles was written by SteveM and the other by me.

Read them & check back here if you have more questions.

Trust me ... the rule is actually pretty simple; it just seems complex at first.
