Slant Formation:
Shiloh Christian High School (AR): Coach Conaway at Shiloh Christian High School, a Gus Malzhan disciple, prefers to use his Slant formation to run the Counter scheme.

Coach Conaway pairs this formation with Buck Sweep, so once defenders start to overload to the twins side, counter becomes a viable solution. Coach Conaway details the blocking rules in his Counter scheme below.
