Are there any veer guys on here that use Split Backs 3 Wide, as there base formation? You don't even have to be veer guys but would like to know how you use this formation if not.

we are a ace back team and when we motion one of our slots back into the backfield, it is esentially the same formation. What is the question??

I was just seeing how successful teams were with it and how they used it.

I believe this is what Mark Speckman bases his Fly offense out of. Not sure if he has a TE or not but I don't think so.

i played in SB veer. we had a set with no TE and 3 wide. OC would call it when he felt like spreading the D out. It would open the middle up a little more by spreading the D out. also a lil easier throw the ball out of.

Easier to throw out of and I would think a good option for some no huddle, option on me to see how the D adjusts.

wolverine55 - That is how Homer Rice used it. I would like to run an offense similar to Rice's and a little fly in it too.

Throw the bubble. You do two things with that. They either have to roll the SS down to cover up the slot or they widen the LB out.
1) If they roll the SS down your weak veer should be wide open. You also open up the quick game
2) If they widen the backer he is removed and is one less guy you have to block. Or at least you can make him a space player. We used to really love giving a veer fake towards him and throwing what amounts to the stick route to his side.

I like this from veer against certain defenses. A 4-4 team can be vulnerable here because, very importantly, you are spreading out the pitch read.
This is my favorite thing about using a slot with the veer. That said, you might be able to achieve this with simple twins. But widening the pitch read can be very good for a young QB (especially against teams that crash them).
Depends how the D will adjust to your formation though. But that's the number one reason for doing this.
