Where I played at last (Emory and Henry College) we ran a 4-3, well that's what they called it. It's really a 4-2-5 robber defense and it is the same defense Mount Union runs. I would just like to see what you would run against it.
Here it is against the I, I'll draw it up against other offenses as you comment:
................................... .SS..........................

WC.......FS............W...... M.....................TC...
.......................E.....N.... T.....E......S.........

General Rules:
Line: I don't know a lot about the line play. I know we were a big shock-snap team even with the line so they engaged more than got up field.
W & M: Flow players, filled there hole according to the flow of the ball.
WC: Pretty much man up unless his guy went flat early, but his emphasis was not to get burnt deep because....
FS: ....Plays hook to flat looking to take away anything underneath to number one and then reacting to the flats on a pass. His read is the tackle, he just freezes at the snap of the ball and read high hat low hat, if it's low hat he has force, if it's high hat he has the above rules.
TC: Has number 1 to his side unless he goes flat at the snap, even though he has number 1 to his side he will stay as deep as 2, so on smash he will end up on top of the corner route.
S: Same as FS.
SS: Plays 8 yards deep in the strong side B gap. Reads number 2(TE), if he blocks then he's looking for flow of the ball, if it's to the strong side he is filling the alley between the End and Sam, if it's away he is scraping looking for cutback. On pass: If the TE runs anything past LB depth he locks on, if he crosses his face under the LBs then he looks backside to help double number 1 on the weak side on a post (this call was made because of how much we saw the NCAA route), if the TE goes strong side on like an out under LB depth then he doubles number 1 strong side.
The reason I am asking this is because I was drawing up some offensive stuff and didn't really run into any problems until I decided to draw up this defense. It gets 9 in the box but still does a good job in pass D.
