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'm looking at implementing more shotgun this upcoming season. I'm really interested in basing a lot of the offense around the jet. Does anyone have any videos/books or know of any colleges that run this much?
Coach
Look into using the Rocket out of the gun rather than the jet. The jet is not a jet it is a sweep, because it is slower than the a jet under center. The snap traveling in the air now requires that the ball is snapped at the c gap as oppose to the B gap. This now gives the defense more time to defend the play. The rocket out of the gun still goes out wide, if not wider. In addition, you will get all of the spinner actions of the old single wing offense. We are currently working on this in our spring ball as we speak. Here is what you get with the rocket:
1. Rocket
2. FB ICE
3. QB ICE
4. QB COunter
5. FB counter
6. WB counter
7. Sally
All of the 3 step game and screens become better from the gun. Let me know if you need help. You can email me at: jwright@pinebushschool.org
Hope this helps

Karjaw:
How deep do you align your QB? And if I'm reading this right, on your Gun-Rocket you have the HB (ball carrier) in motion behind the QB and run it like your "regular" Rocket?
Thanks,
tm
What's ICE? Iso of some kind? Or like the Dart when the tackle pulls and works up to the LB? And Sally, I'm not familiar with that term either...
Thanks in advance.
TM, we bring a Slot in motion or a wing in front of the QB in the Gun, it also sets up a nice play fake for a QB Counter, Bootleg, or even Speed away from the motion if an outside invert goes with the Slot in motion.

Coach
Ice is ISO. We do not want the ball in front we do not want the defense to see it at all. We like it when the QB turns his back to the defense it hides it a lot better. This is why we like the rocket from the gun as oppose to the jet. In addition, the jet is not a jet in the gun it is a sweep.
