After a rather hectic off-season of applying for jobs, interviewing, and switching positions I managed to land my first Offensive Coordinator position only 12 days before the season started (High School Level). As offensive coordinator I have installed and I-Option Offense. None of the other coaches on our staff have any experience in running the Triple Option and none of the athletes had every run the Triple Option.
We are now 2 weeks into our season and have had 2 scrimmages with mixed results overall but one thing stands out in my mind... We have not had a SINGLE fumble in either scrimmage on an option play. Our Quarterback's and Fullback's picked up the technique quickly and in all of our practices and scrimmages combined we have not put a single ball on the ground.
Until browsing these forums last winter I had never even heard of the point method and with the help of Coach Easton it has made my transition to Coordinator go much easier than I was expecting considering the lack of experience running the Option in our program.
I just wanted to post it here so others can see the impact the point method has had on my football team.
