G power ( playside guard kicks 1 lead block from backfield, one back influences sweep) ? Maybe double dive since youre in the bone?
I can explain it to you, I can't understand if for you.
If any body uses this kind of "D", what happens if I widen my TE's?

I'm wondering if I can move two defenders by moving one TE?

You did say "no cross block"? Correct
Was that your league rules or someone elses?

I've hardly coached that age at all, but...pop pass to a shallow crosser. Cut at least the DGs, FB picks up the DE on the side the E's releasing from.
However, most popular with that age is sweep-and-bootleg or toss sweep and lead.
I ran a similar version of the defense that you listed. The only difference is that the LB was inside and the DT was outside.
The play that *killed* me was faking power the the right and counter back to the left (the LB's were so aggressive, that they overpursued). I gave up 22 points in that contest, which is why I reached out to you about the Killer Bee 😉
I also like the QB Sweep with the ends split out. If the LB moves out, you could run inside with the QB Power.

My HC organization doesn't allow it. League does.
League allows it and your org handcuffs you? That is some stupid stuff, right there.
I'd part-block the bubble, have some xx backfield action and lead the Fullback to pick up the LB and run the ball right behind the Fullback. Keybreaker action if they follow the Fullback's lead is to send the Fullback and HB to one bubble, while the ball-carrier goes solo to the other bubble. Also, trapping their #2 would make their bubble even bigger. And then there's always Wedge.

I was thinking similar to this. Back on the old site I used to run a wishbone WAAAAYYY back in the day. I would run it like a DW style offense with "out numbering" at the point of attack so my thoughts of the angles of attack the wishbone gives you lead well to an off tackle play. I down blocked and kicked my way to opening up the off tackle hole.

We were a Wishbone Cross Buck team before going DW whole-hog. But we scissor-blocked at the POA.

Thanks for the replies. I can't wedge either.
Sheesh, next you are going to tell me you were in the Vietnam war. Talk about being handcuffed.
Jst accordion the TE out and see when the DE finally aligns inside.
Sweeping from this alignment is a pain in the backside. I tried TE over and log blocked the DE with playside HB. Its a tell but it worked.

Actually with 8Us it's very productive with no tricks at all and no pulling. You can't count on its gaining yards on any particular down, but average is usually high just because of how most players this age [don't] defend to the sidelines.
And on the naked bootleg there's only one defender out there (likely a CB on air), especially to the near sideline once you have the sweep threat going to the wide side, and your QB has a good chance to beat him 1-on-1. Or you can establish your QB as the major threat to the wide side -- no handoff so safest -- and then you have all those bodies blocking to the narrow side.
