I dont run much flexbone but if I did I would just have to run the old wing-t criss cross play. I love that play!

Lou,
You have mail.

Will,

We kick out the defender on or past the slot. This is the outside linebacker/defensive end/overhang player/contain player or anything else you want to call him. We down block the 5 technique with the slot and kickout the defender past him with the fullback. We hand the backside slot the ball off his 2-step motion at a depth of 4 yards. The slot should get lateral and then work up to hug the down block that the slot has executed. The backside guard should seal the scraping linebacker (ideally) and the slot runs to daylight. The quarterback will boot away at a depth of 6 yards. Our power play is called 35/36. If we run 36 with the QB booting away it becomes 36 Boot. Coach, I hope this helped and we can discuss this further if need be.

3 ft. splits if we are running midline/veer

2 ft. splits if we are running anything else

We will work on this from the beginning of June right through the season. Splits have to be gone over all the time to the point where they automatically react to the stimulus.

Buck Dive is run to the side opposite of the sweep. This was started by Jim Roth at Southern Columbia, who has won five state championships in Pennsylvania (most all time). They got tired of good teams reading keys on the buck trap and stopping them, so they base block everyone and they run the ball to the a gap away from the sweep. This is far more effective than the trap, because good teams can read keys and blow up the trap.

Here are the blocking rules on Buck Dive:

PSE- Stalk
PSB- 2-step mo, Sweep Path
PT- Inside Linebacker
PG- Gap-On-Down
C- Base-Playside Linebacker
BG- Playside Gap
BT- Playside Gap
BSB- Fake Down Block to Near Safety
BSE- Crack
QB- Buck Series Steps
FB- Dive Path

Coach Cella,
I noticed Jet was not on your offensive list did you get rid of that? And do you run any rocket?

Cory, I do not run any rocket. The reason is because I have enough in the offense right now and I believe that expansion of the offense would work against us. We have a play attacking every hole to and away from the motion. That is sufficient for now.
