SpaceCowboy Posted February 28, 2003 Report Share Posted February 28, 2003 Try using the Wing T formations. Red and blue both have a tight end/ wing. On the other side you have a slot and split end. You can run triple to both sides, and mid line is great to the TE. What I like about option to the strong side is the running lane for the fullback. If they try to take the FB with a 9 tech. they're in trouble. If they move to a 7 tech. you hit them with the midline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoachDG Posted February 28, 2003 Report Share Posted February 28, 2003 Thanks. That's exactly what I am talking about. You could also take the strong wing and downblock on the DE if he is outside of the TE. Then option off the strong LB. Do you coach anywhere? If so, where at?

CoachDG Posted February 28, 2003 Report Share Posted February 28, 2003 Here's a book that I have recently bought on the option. It is written by Tony Demeo; it is "101 Ways to Run the Option." It will give coaches ideas on how to incorporate the option into almost every offense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boneal52 Posted February 28, 2003 Report Share Posted February 28, 2003 Obviously no literal meaning here, but an observation I noticed at Centennial High. Year/Record/Offensive System 1997/1-9/Pro I 1998/4-6/Wishbone Triple Option (some double wing) 1999/2-8/Spread 2000/3-7/Pro I 2001/2-8/Wishbone Triple Option 2002/7-4/Wishbone Triple Option The best seasons had were with the option, and also of note those years were of less talent than other years.

ELA Posted February 28, 2003 Report Share Posted February 28, 2003 Combine the Spread and the Option, it is tough to beat. You can run the option out of the gun or out of the spread with motion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronKnight Posted February 28, 2003 Report Share Posted February 28, 2003 Do you run it out of double slot or the I? I agree the counter iso is a great play, along with the midline trap. It is so good because that 3 tech. that has been the read man, now gets ear holed. Thanks for the advice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpaceCowboy Posted February 28, 2003 Report Share Posted February 28, 2003 I'm Kentuckian by birth, Tennessean by marriage, and a Beaver by the grace of God. I'm sure you can figure that one out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest cutiger Posted March 3, 2003 Report Share Posted March 3, 2003 Don't remember the year, but Jeremy Bates (Sevier County) out of Multiple formations beat D-B at J. Fred by himself. I was a middle school QB for John Sevier at the time and he became my favorite football player of all time. He ran the triple option, straight veer, dropped back in the shotgun & ran draws, he did everything. Someone truly missed the boat at the college level on letting him operate their option attack. Another good tandem was the Dingus, Clendenin, & McMillan attack in 99 at D-B. Dingus was not the fastest guy but he was the smartest QB D-B has ever had.

CoachDG Posted March 4, 2003 Report Share Posted March 4, 2003 I am at Heritage. We had some great games a few years ago. I have no idea why we were not in the same region again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
