The Dream Diamond Formation

How about the triangle offense?

I am a huge fan of the Diamond formation. Love the opportunities for mis-direction and play-action that the formation presents. IMO, I would like NU to use this formation as much as the I. From a personnel standpoint, the Diamond works best with speed and blockers. I'd say have TMart at QB, Rex at RB, and a combination of the 3 freshman RBs and Legate in the last spot in the backfield. Keep Bell/Turner at one spot out wide and Enunwa in the other.
I think it's a nice compliment and change of pace, but the I is more of our bread and butter.

 
I wanted to vote for "The Annexation of Puerto Rico" but it was taken. Honestly I don't care what they call it as long as they keep getting postive yards with it.

 
I love the diamond formation. Though I also love us in the I-Formation pounding the rock down the defense's throat, it is nice to mix it up and hit bigger plays on occasion.

 
WHat I really like is the creativity of the formation, and you can do so much out of it. Another thing I like is the amount of speed that you can get on the field as well

 
This is my absolute favorite formation that we have. Martinez, Burkhead, Green, Abdullah, Bell, Kinnie/Turner/Enunwa all on the field at the same time. The combined athleticism of that group is amazing!!
