Again, my football IQ is being raised to a level that's unheard of thanks to these videos! Great work!

[@AimingWanderously]

THANKS! Your video on this from 7 yrs ago gave me more questions than answers, but this one finally dumbs it down enough and explains it well for me. Muchos gracias.

[@chukascarreon7037]

Thanks a lot!, After several videos, I finally understood the eligible/ineligible rule, the best explanation.

[@ingobernoble2678]

Well explained. I finally understand how this rule works. I still don't understand *why* its a rule in the first place though

[@tonynelson9367]

Nice understandable, clear concise.👍 thank you

[@vIQtorySports]

Thank you Tony!

[@GoopDaLoop]

11/10 Job at explaining this. Thank you.

[@vIQtorySports]

Thank you!

[@superkong81]

Hey coach, you make it so easy to understand, thank you!!

[@vIQtorySports]

Thank you!

[@martinianovaldez2883]

Great stuff! Now its 100% clear.

[@DenverJohn]

Wow thanks for this!

[@mjciavola]

I thought that in college (and maybe high school?) an offensive lineman (with a certain jersey number range) is always ineligible even if he is the end man on the line of scrimmage. You can't just report the jersey number of the O lineman as you can in the NFL

[@masonspencer2718]

Thank you for making this easy to understand, what website is this?

[@MellowBullet]

Thanks. Was literally just wondering about this.

[@tapuwanasheziwange8568]

Really Good Video Coach👏

[@vIQtorySports]

Appreciate you!!

[@quackrack19]

What’s the interactive software program you are using to explain all this? Thanks again!

[@jorgegaming2534]

I believe its Hudl

[@Pacem90]

Does the tackle reporting eligible have to do so at the start of every play that he’s not covered? Or can he do so early in the game and have it carry through the game? Seems like the ref would be accounting eligible receivers the whole game

[@Pacem90]

What’s the first portion of the clip? Did Dan Skipper actually report as eligible or not?

[@gimmesumelbow]

Good stuff

[@jorgegaming2534]

so if you ran a jumbo set wouldn't that be covering up?

[@Trip-oj1mm]

What site/app for these plays do you use ?

[@vIQtorySports]

Hudl

[@Trip-oj1mm]

Thanks

[@JonRosenberg-m7z]

If there are 4 players in the backfield, all with eligible numbers, how is it determined by rule which of them is ineligible? One of them must be since there are a max of 5 eligible receivers on every play?

[@vegefranz]

vielen Dank👍🇩🇪

[@thekoreanzebra]

Love the video but we need to differentiate NFL from all other levels. Example. No reporting in HS and there is no 7 on the line rule. It’s only 5 and by number. No max than 4 in the backfield. Eligibility is declared by number but the covered up rule is the same.

[@CoachHTK]

You should do a Vanderbilt film breakdown against Bama

[@aprilhutchens2105]

What if Y is on the LOS and Z is not

[@bradcollard5262]

Then Y is uncovered and eligible by rule. Z is also eligible since the plwer is in the backfield. In the end, you need to have 7 on the LOS and 4 in the backfield. For a player to be eligible, they must not be covered on the LOS

[@davidausterman5915]

👍👍

[@DJ-Storynexus]

Yes I am a Offical i’m like the NFL there’s no reporting in because they just cannot run a pattern or catch a pass if they are a certain 50 -79.

[@DM-yj9qf]

i want to know the history of this rule. what happened to cause this to exist?

[@TheBLKMIATA98]

I tell my players to think of the 7 on the line as a sandwich, the Ends are bread & only the bread can go out, meat cheese, & mayo can’t. It doesn’t matter if the sandwich is the width of the field, staggered in a contrarian way, or shoulder to shoulder, the rule still applies. We can always have more than 7 but never less. The others that are more than a yard back are all eligible. I’ve coached from 2nd grade to high school & they all get it. My 2nd grade team lined up vs a swinging gate in a second because they knew the gaps & eligibility rule. kzbin.info/www/bejne/iZylaK2cl7tkaJIsi=yFvbQXqPTlbI6Mml
