Several of the Loyola players looked very confused when we lined up. Some appeared to be pointing at Moser, like they can't do this.

I think think they cal legally pass to someone that is on the baseline and never goes in bounds. So in this video, Chastain could have passed to Hein (had Hein not gone in bounds) and the other three could run their routes while Hein inbounds the ball to whoever. That would create mass confusion if legal and should be considered for future inbound plays.

Exactly. As long as the previous play resulted in a score this is legal.

Muller is for sure reading the board! As others have pointed out, Milik passed it to Key out of bound first and was wide open. I love this play because it is so hectic and nearly impossible to guard the inbound specifically. After that, its just kind of a basic man press break. I think if we do this enough, Phil or Chas could be running a fly route and be forgotten about for an easy dunk/layup.

I hear Bradley has been recruiting cornerbacks to implement a nickel package to combat this.

You're assuming Bradley knows what a cornerback & nickel package are!! They probably think its a guy with his back on the corner selling nickel bags!

Don't pick on Bradley. Their football program has been unbeaten since 1969. I have a BU friend that reminds me of this on a regular basis.

Maybe saving that for the tournament.

They did it against Loyola. Milik started with the ball Cope, Chas, and Phil ran their routes, and Milik passed to Key. Milik stepped in bounds and received the pass. He turned it over, but that beside this point.

Gonna say wat CB2K said. The play worked well. It was after the ball was inbounds did things go askew. Our coach comes up with something that new and gets national attention.

He should be fired!!!

i wonder how many times you can pass it while still OB. i would assume once a player comes in bounds, they can no longer go back OB and touch the ball, but there are a lot of possibilities here...

They can start inbounds and then go OB and get the ball so I don't see why they couldn't start OB, go inbounds then come back OB and get the ball.

As many as 5 seconds to get it in will allow
