"If it ain't broke, don't fix it." Bert Lance
The mesh point is the hookup between the Quarterback and the B-Back during the dive phase of the Veer. It either results in a Give where the Quarterback hands off the ball to the B-Back (if the Divekey does not assign on the B-Back) or in a Pull where the Quarterback pulls the ball out of the mesh and continues to read the Pitchkey (if the Divekey assigns on the B-Back). Of course there is another result - THE FUMBLE - and this is why you have to be sound on any Mesh technique that you are using.
A lot of different mesh techniques have been developed through history of the Veer. Like almost everything in football, all of them are sound if you are using the right techniques, teaching methods and if you are practicing it over and over again.
Lets have a look at the different techniques:
The Ride and Decide Method
The Point Method
The Hop Method
