Split the double team
DefenseTechniqueDTNT
What it is
Get skinny and penetrate between the two blockers before the double is joined.
Why it matters
Requires beating the timing of the combination - once the blockers are hip to hip it is too late. High reward, high risk: failing to split usually means being displaced two yards.
Also called
Programs call this split the deuce or get skinny. The Coach answers to any of them.
