About as close to a spread offense as you can get in 11-man. Says its legal in 41 states, not sure if Texas is one of those.

Somewhere I heard that it is not legal under NCAA rules ...

Here was an article regarding the possibility of UT using it on kicking downs. The article is from September so maybe Texas has since decided it is good enough without a gimmick. http://www.dailytexanonline.com/sports/ ... _attention

A-11 MAY be in trouble.

I spoke with a long time TASO official at the THSCA clinic last summer in SanAntonio about this offense. We were taking a hard look at the offense since we may be transitioning to 11-man within the next few seasons due to numbers. He said they were familiar with the offense and noted that there was no way it would be legal here (in Tx.) since we go by the NCAA rules in football. Their interpretaion was the only time you can line up in that formation with those (#s) on the field would be on obvoius kicking downs. Which they interpret to be 4th down. So technically you could run it on 4th down, but that would be it.

If you are a fan of the A-11, read it and weep.
