It will be cool to see the pistol in there too.

But thats all presnap, right? It not like you hold onto A throughout the handoff for run and let go of it before handing if off for pass/keeper. That'd be cool. Like if you hold A just right, then the D bites or something.

And agreed about the pistol.

That's kinda how it works. I've never really run the option offense but it does give you some control over handing it off vs not.
