1) What is the Orange Zone?
2) When in Trips Right/Left, what terminology do you use to tell the TB where to lineup - to the trips or away from trips?

Orange zone?? -Could be from the 40-20
Depends what kind of offense you use I suppose. I use the Pistol and my trips the TB lines behind the QB, unless we tag it Near (TB lines up next to QB to the strength), Far (TB lines up next to QB away from the strength).
Y-T-G-C-G-T----------------Z ------------------------X----------A -------Q - -------H Trips Left

I believe I've also heard a few people refer to inside the opponents 40 as "Orange Zone".
We've used in the past "2 Gun" and "3 Gun". 2, an even number, means RB to the right of QB. 3, an odd number, means to the left of the QB. It cleans up verbage because you can call "Trips Right 2 Gun" and Trips Right 3 Gun" and it is simple and avoids any confusion.

... 2) When in Trips Right/Left, what terminology do you use to tell the TB where to lineup - to the trips or away from trips? First, try simply having him line up where he needs to be in order to properly execute his assignment. i.e. if it's zone right, align on the left. if it's qb power right, align on the right. teach him where to align on each play .. i.e. "backside" on zone, counter-trey, dart (backside=away from the side play is going). "playside" on speed option, lead draw, power, etc. (playside=on the side play is going) use a term to align him "opposite" his normal alignment. example: 14 Draw is our QB lead draw right, so RB aligns on the right. 14 O Draw is still QB lead draw right, but RB aligns 'opposite' on the left. "O" is term we use to switch alignment for the RB.

on question #2 whenever we have a one back set we say the formation, "trips right" then "rick" or "leo" to determine what side of the QB the RB will line up. During the week when we game plan we can pre-determine what side the RB will be on also.

I use "over" for strongside and "under" for weakside. In one-back gun the HB ligns up to the weakside unless there is "over" call. In one-back under center he ligns up behind the QB but with an "over " or "under" call he will lign up to that side. This can be used fx. with specific pass pro or for better blocking angles in QB runs, roll-outs or jet sweeps.
This also means that in any split backfield(under center or gun) where the FB ligns up strong and HB weak, I can make them switch by adding an "over" call to the formation.
