teachin Zone to HS kids that never played FB

Black Fly gave a good answer, imo. If they know notihng, then the combo blocks that afford them help, is just as easy to teach. Just teach them WHO TO BLOCK FIRST AND THEN TEACH THEM HOW.

Coach Easton

thank you for the response coaches, and Coach Campbell the o-line zone tape from phoenix is great

coach my email is devonrose51@aol.com. I would love to see the info, thanks for the help

Coach Zuck;

Could you please email me your rules for the ISO, and how you taught the play up front?

I'm looking to add it to our list.

I could send you some of my Zone blocking stuff in return, or we could work out something.

Cool... I think I understand.

So if you were running the ISO into a 4-3 with a 2 technique... you'd have the PST double with the PSG on the DT, and run the H/FB at the 1st PS.LB?

Would the C then be going straight to the MLB... and passing up that 2 tech to the playside?

Hey Jerry - Glad to see you're getting out and enjoying life !!!!!!!! Excellent !!!!!

Still Winter here. I'll be going down to Pittsburgh this weekend for the Nike Clinic - Joe Bugel is supposed to speak on the Sunday!!!!

Our team is looking good, especially at the JV level. We have about 20 kids working out at 7:30am in the morning - about 10 of those are Freshmen!!!! We do a great rope skippin/plyometric warm-up followed by cleans, bench presses, and squats, etc. I've seen GREAT gains and improvements in physique with the guys. When we are 'resting' between sets we're skipping rope or doing burpees. We've had some kids guys come in a try to join in the middle of a phase... and they can't keep up because of the base we've built - but we've had a few stick with it.

I'm also putting together a manual for our players on Strength/Agility/Speed... as well as Nutrition and Study Skills... I have a video to go with our weight program as well for the exercises.

So we are building quite a base for the future. At the Varsity level I still don't have a QB - but I'm trying to manufacture someone who can throw a little playaction at least off the zone. My JV QB's will be going to at least 2 good QB camps locally in the summer - and I'm planning on taking my linemen down to one of the local NCAA schools for a couple 1 day camps.

I've got another issue I'll need some advice about... I'll contact you after the weekend.

BlackFly,

Tell me all of the line and LB techniques and I will let you know what we would do.
