Installing Today’s Hybrid Pistol Offense Run & Pass from Top to Bottom
This manual provides you with the full offensive line, receiver, and quarterback mechanics for installing each offensive play presented. Coach Campbell has left no stone unturned for implementing today’s Pistol Offense into your program.
I am new to the world of O-line. I had to help our coach in this area this past season and truly realized what a luxury it has been to work with my previous O-line coaches. I was hoping to get some suggestions on the type of OLine call you all make and how many calls are made at the line. Thanks guys.
These are some we use. Unlike some - we prefer not to make a call unless it becomes necessary.
