Coach notes describe four plays with low success odds. Handoff inside tackle offers little chance of a first down under current conditions. Pitch out risks more yardage but the offense stalls. Button hook offers best down conversion though two scores needed. Bootleg risks loss yet could produce a long Cadet-stopping run if executed.
