Thats exactly what Scott has me doing with a couple of other additions but no Back Squat.

As I've said on here before I question the need (besides variety for the sake of it) to back squat if you're doing fronts, deadlifts and single leg work - I think the real reason many people shy away from the latter is because it's bloody hard work!
The other issue with back squats is that they put your shoulders in the 'at-risk position' (externally rotated and abducted). If you have any preexisting shoulder issues or your sport requires overhead throwing/hitting then I think you'd be much better off picking another squat variation.
