Help with Load Option

Coach P - I believe coach nk... is using coach Campbell's load option rules in which it is best run to a 3 tech. with a 7 tech. or 5 tech. with a 9 tech. As he's already mentioned vs. a 3 tech. reach him with the ps guard, the tackle and tightend will "trey" the 7 tech. to the MLB. Pitch key becomes the first unblocked defender, usually the OLB in a 4-4, FB blocks the 2nd unblocked defender, usually the FS.
Coach nk... we get that problem also with those fast flying lb's. We've had some big gainers off our counter trap to take advantage of their pursuit. The other thing we emphasized this year are - 1st the QB flash fakes the ball on his push away steps. 2nd, the fullbacks first two steps are the same as outside veer including making a pocket. Since it's important in the zone blocking scemes to not chase the 2nd level defenders we're trying to induce them to come to us. It's a great play and it's been very good for us. Good luck.

The Trey block for the Load Option is a fast rotating combination between the tackle and tight end which tracks the playside linebacker. Depending upon how the playside linebacker reacts to the load movement he could trigger underneath which the tackle would pick him up or if the linebacker scrapes over the top then the tight end will block him. By blocking try on a 7 tech and or a 5 tech depending upon what the defense gives you then this play never stretches and gives the play alot of grass to run on. Coach Campbell
