Tricky onside kick in Texas Hebron High School

[craigk217]

Not CFB, but it just might make it into ND's or someone else's playbook ....

Thought this was pretty 'unique' and it actually worked in fooling the other team ....

Even with the circle around him, I didn't see the guy the first time I watched it

That's awesome.

Well executed.

He had such a head start, I had to watch it twice and use pause to be sure he wasn't off-sides.

At first I thought, wow, that was a really dumb onside kick. They just kicked it straight to the other team with no one to get it. Then I saw the guy with the ball.

Maybe Indiana will put this in their playbook...fags

I wouldn't do this in CFB. It has to be executed to perfection or kicking team is in trouble.

On-side kicks are generally desperation anyway, right.

Trailing with little time on the clock. Recover it or lose.

Unless you're Pelini, then you'll try an on-side kick trailing with 3:30 remaining.

Nice. Pay attention Mr. Stoops.

True , but if you will lose the game anyway it might be worth a try.

first time I watched it I had no clue what I watched. creativity. gotta like it

Texas has the worst S/T in the country, might as well put this in the playbook. Nothing to lose at all, especially with a sick D to back you up in case you don't recover.

Trick plays using substitutions are gay. Cool in high school, cheap and fluky in college and up.

It was in the first quarter after Hebron scored to make it 7-0. They lost the game 44-10.

I was a wr and did the kicking in high school. We used to do the same think when needed in the vid. I would just pop the ball as high as I could and try to drop it just inside the 15 and our 6'5" TE would just snag it. Worked ever time we did it. Why didn't we do it every kickoff then? Anyway, I don't see why its not done that way in the NFL. I don't like the stupid end over end grounder that pops up at the end everyone does now. You can cut it off to easy or it pops up OOB.

Because if they tried something like that in the NFL the receiving team would fair catch it. If it were a free ball then every team would kick it sky high every kick off. The play was neat but there's a reason you don't see it at higher levels. Receiving teams guys know to fair catch it when it's in the air like that.

You are right but I was thinking about the situation where its not obvious an onside kick is coming. There was a kid we played against that would line drive the kickoff right into the first guy infront of him on the return team. Worked perfect the time I saw him do it. Bounced right back to him.
