it is a team thing but in a zone scheme the blocking is determined by the dl and guys on the los. this is then signaled between the linemen on who has who and as defenders shift they communicate and change things. this is why a good center is so important at iowa...communicating with the rest of the line. the qb will a lot of times signal blitzers but it is the lines job to understand and communicate the adjustment. it is on the team and the coaches but in the iowa system the oline and ol coach are more in on this than the rest.
RB's picking up the blitz will be a concern this year due to the lack of experience at RB
