Whether you call a 5-2 team a 3-4 team is subjective but is interesting that you never played against Hillsborough, Robinson, armwood, Brandon,riverview, or plant :-)
yea Hillsborough, countyside and Jefferson all ran 3-3 stack and it can be a nightmair
Usually we must use a TE against it because of 8 man pressure schemes
Pro the west coast uses horizontal patterns to stretch a defense rather than vertical patters, usually 2 backs and a TE but when steve marioochi was in SF he used 3 wr's rather than a FB.
combination routs and crossing patterns are a staple
a lot of shotgun split back teams use it
Dallas in the 90's started a new brand of a vertical passing game rather than the west coast attack
it is hard to run in high school because lob passes are easier to throw than darts that break windows and the qb play in high school is often tricky
see south dade when they won state their QB was awesome. he graduated and they fell off
6A north is a set up with one team manipulating an open door policy from a large metropolitan area then running through the small county towns left like ghangus khan and the thundering Hurd, till they get to state and hit a team with a real roster and get steam rolled, unless the officials keep them in the game. Then they can "hang with" said established program 24-10 and move up 20 spots in the national poll.
Now 7A has some intrigue, I would love to see Lakeland get their mojo back
