BruceColetrain Posted March 17, 2022 Report Share Posted March 17, 2022 17 hours ago, GoTigers0322 said: In all honesty, it sounds more complex than it is... The first option is always to give the RB the ball on the run play. Then if the read takes the run away, the QB then pulls the ball and transitions to his secondary read, which is typically a flat defender/outside linebacker. Reads then work out from inside out or low to high on which receiver to throw the ball to. If it is a trips set where there are 3 receivers to that side, options 2, 3, and 4 are those 3 receivers. Option 5 is a checkdown to a crossing backside receiver on a slant or dig route. Option 6 is for the QB to run the ball himself. Rarely do you see an offense at the high school level of carrying it out past first 2 to 3 options. Most high school QBs will get the first read on the give/keep on the run play. Then their second read/option is the first receiver. After that, they typically tuck and run and never get to the rest of the options Depending on the system...basically, there is a front side "gift throw". and if they do this, then you do that. and... The defender in conflict is the key. If he plays the run, the Qb throws the route that replaces him. The defender can be a LB or a S. But he HAS to be the run fitter that has a route to cover. He cant serve 2 masters. There can be pre snap, post snap, numbers and leverage throws. Which all carry different rules. Most HS programs that run RPOs throw gifts, numbers/ leverage, or post snaps. Not full drop back concept passes off runs. Simple. I know a little more than you think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blitzinbuc Posted March 23, 2022 Report Share Posted March 23, 2022 After reading all the comments, it's obvious to me this Rankin guy - whoever he is - is clueless about choosing assistant coaches and building a winning staff and program.

I detect a tone of sarcasm........:) Maybe Simbeck made a career decision in accepting a position working for Coach Rankin....Lots of successful HS Coaches are from that tree....Pretty good decision by Simbeck IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This particular assistant has applied for pretty much every open head coaching job in the area over the last couple of years, and there was a lot of tension at Central. One of those cases where it was pretty obvious that a move needed to be made from both sides and probably for the best. And it's more than just "coaching". As I understand it he was the right fit for the open teaching job in Chattanooga, too. The pieces of the puzzle need to all fit sometimes. But that said, if anybody doesn't understand that Rankin is the head coach and that whoever the OC is will have to fit Gary's offensive philosophy and not the other way around hasn't seen a Gary Rankin coached team in a while.

Every excuse in the world as to why Coach Rankin chose him, other than Mr. Rankin seeing something he liked about Simbeck's coaching. But again, maybe Coach Rankin is totally clueless about choosing assistants and building strong programs.... and should read the comments on here from the experts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not related to Mr. Simbeck or Mr. Rankin. I'm merely defending Coach Rankin's decision and defer to his successes in choosing competent assistants, and his ability to see something in them he likes. Apparently my mistake was that I wasn't aware there were more competent people commenting on here with a resume that superseded Mr. Rankin's in coaching.

Hartleyrick Posted March 28, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2022 Now that they have been back from Spring Break, any news from Central on a new Offensive Coordinator? Have they got someone on staff up for the job or are they looking outside the program Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blitzinbuc Posted March 30, 2022 Report Share Posted March 30, 2022 After doing some research I found out Mr. Simbeck was voted Region Offensive Coordinator of The Year two years in a row in 6A (McMinn County) and now in his 2nd year at Central he's honored as Region 2-5A Offensive Coach of The Year . Hmmm... maybe this Rankin guy ain't so dumb after all. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
