My guess is a form of wing t. I was going to say a single wing variant. |

When Emory Bellard, inventor of the Wishbone offense, moved one HB up to a Wing he called it the "Wing Bone."
Others called that and at its inception the Flexbone the "Broken Bone."
Perhaps "Broken Wing" is similar - the Dive Back (or HB) moved up into the Slot opposite the Wing.
Have seen that formation for a long time. Delaware called it Red-Blue as I recall.
Or perhaps it's a Double Slot resembling Run 'n Shoot? Tiger Ellison's (inventor of the R 'n S) running game was Wing-T oriented.

I assume its some version of the things you mentioned but I've never heard that term before. |

Looked like Wing Right/Left but with 2 WRs instead of the 1 TE/ 1 WR Delaware formation. Army ran a lot of jet sweeps, traps, belly, some double option. Occasionally a toss to the TB in the backfield. Passing game was PA and Sprint-out. |
