Chaotic A-11 Offense Banned in Preps
The chaotic A-11 offense, an offshoot of the spread, has been declared illegal by the National Federation of State High School Associations.
The radical offense allowed 11 players to be initially eligible for a pass by utilizing the “scrimmage-kick exception”. The rule states that players not wearing Nos. 50 to 79 can be eligible to receive a down field pass. It was fun, unpredictable, and wild while it lasted and it drove defenses crazy, forcing the “D” to guess which players to cover downfield.
It substitutes receivers and backs for offensive linemen. A center and two tight ends surround the ball and two quarterbacks are featured in the shotgun formation. Six receivers are split out wide.
The national federation closed the “scrimmage kick” loophole and deemed the offense “unsportsmanlike” because it was equally chaotic to the officials.
