Full disclosure:

I struggled with Cisar's materials and GOD blocking in particular.  With that out of the way, I see what he is aiming for.

I'm a "simple is better" kind of guy, so I would go with 24 ISO simply because at first glance it would be an easier teach for the o-line.

If you are the type to add your own twist to materials, I'd simply add a "part" call. 

Part 1 = Tells everybody to down block except the last "1" on the line, who blocks out. Use this when the bubble is between your PT and your SE. (6 hole)

Part 2 - Tells everybody to down block except the last "2" on the line who block out. Use this when the bubble is between your ST and PT. (4 hole)

In any Part call, all blocking backs run through the part.

We run this in Beast and DW. It's a lot easier to do this when you're unbalanced. Like taking candy from a baby.

--Re: G/O/D, it was not as effective for us as the simple down block (SAB/TKO).  We knew the rule, but the ON block wasn't as successful as the DOWN block most of the time.  However, on some plays a Down block does not fit the scheme because one size does not fit all.

--When we ran ISO, we ran it with a "Part" tag.  

--We taught Wedge, Trap, Down, On, Part, and Double for our players, among other schemes.  So learning the multiple aspect of the blocking schemes was never, ever a problem.  Many coaches (especially at the youth level) will try to teach a "one size fits all" blocking scheme, which limits the plays you can run, or doesn't fit the plays they run.  Running a Dive play inside the Tackle while the playside blocks down isn't the best way to block that play, for example.

I have coached the Cisar UBSW for several years.

Most teams stack the 6 hole with their best players against me.  So there frequently is a bubble in the 4 hole that I have never been able to consistently exploit.   Dave Cisar considers the 14 Blast a “must have” play.  However, other coaches on dumbocoach seem to like 24 Iso.

I am coaching 3-4th graders in rec league this coming fall, so trying to keep it simple without adding too many plays or too complicated schemes.

Does anyone have a preference?  Why?

This is how we run it.  The key to the play is the inside tackle.  He decides whether the hole opens inside him or outside of him depending on where the defensive lineman is located.  He blocks through the defenders shoulder which is nearest to the gap we will run through.  The BB and WB read his block and lead through the gap behind him with the BB blocking inside and the WB blocking outside and these two should be hip to hip through the hole.  The FB and back side guard should be right behind them hip to hip with guard blocking inside and FB outside.

There's a few clips of the play starting at 3:50 in this video:

I agree with Larry/Dave above.  GOD was a hit or miss teach for us.  It worked great with one group and not at all with a different group.  Was probably my lack of time/patience to properly teach it.  TKO has been the easiest teach, most consistent and effective blocking scheme for us.  

Also pulling the backside guard is easy with TKO.  The off tackle lane is much tighter than with GOD so the guard doesn't have as far to travel.  If you teach the karoke/skip pull, fat freddy can pull and lead the ball carrier.  You won't have to deal with the playside penetration issues that you will when always pulling the playside guard.

Just my 2 cents for free.  Happy to help anyone interested in Singe Wing football.

Had a lot of luck with 22/24 ISO and feel it is a fairly simple teach.  Ran it with 3/4th graders for a couple of years so I know you can do it. I never really taught 14 Blast.  ISO hits fast and is an excellent compliment to 43 Reverse/Counter and is one of my favorite plays.  Also can be run out of Mouse.  We/I teach everyone inside the hole blocks GOD and everyone outside the hole blocks GOO.  It really works out that everyone blocks the same on 22 or 24 ISO except the inside Tackle.  He is the only one on the line that has to change his rule.  I really like what Coach Gumby has with Part# and would like to figure out how I can use it with our play-calling nomenclature.  

We were able to run 22/24 ISO last season with 1st graders. I called it Fullback Part because teaching a numbering system to 6 year olds was like trying to describe what yellow tastes like. All they needed to know was who to block and where to run. That they understood with ease.

I also never liked 14 Blast because I felt it was actually putting too many bodies in the way, so I changed it to 24 Blast with the 1 back running an 18 Sweep fake which, if the fake is executed properly, usually pulls a linebacker out of the way and forces the Cornerback to stay put. This play is excellent to keep 16 Power moving. Once I see the DT aligned outside the Power Tackle, I'll have the Power Tackle and Right End go 2nd level and let the 3 back obliterate the charging DT. It's a simple read that yields huge gains.
