Someone geekier than I about football should comment here

Football offense is an evolving beast, but perhaps the last major evolutionary step came with Walsh's "West Coast" quick-short-pass plan, which has since become the de facto standard for the NFL and college and even some high schools. But apparently not at Piedmont High in California, where a combination of factors led two coaches to create something entirely new that involves two quarterbacks and all 11 men carrying the ball.

No, really. They've had it reviewed by rules committees, too, and it's apparently been determined to be legal. And the college coaches are already interested.

There's a story here, and a whole site about it at A11offense.com.

Kind of reminds me of Jack Pardee's 'Run and shoot' offense with an option quarterback running the show. Would be exciting to watch.
