Yes, and I like to see a full 180 deg pivot (so he's lifting the foot that is on the jet back's side) and get his back to the defense for the handoff. Keeps the ball hidden and opens up the trap and boot/waggle options.
So if I'm the right tackle and my rule is Gap Down Backer Is that where the difference between a gap block (Head across) and down block (Head behind) come in cause the down is further away? Or do I use these techniques based on how the guy is playing me if the defender is reading head behind if he's penetrating head across? even if he's in my gap would I ever use a down technique? Does that make sense?
Usually we'll prefer a down block ("head in the hole") because it will make it more difficult for the defender to cross the blocker to the point of attack. I cover this in depth in this article: wingt-coach.com/understanding-the-down-gap-and-cover-blocks/
Coach what is your installation period throughout the summer if your state does that? Week 1: Buckseries: Trap, Sweep, Counter, & waggle Week 2: Jet series: sweep, Trap, XX, and boot Week 3: Belly and down series? You do anything like that that’d you share?
That's a good plan. I have some articles about this: wingt-coach.com/installing-the-wing-t-week-1/ wingt-coach.com/start-with-the-belly-series/ Summary of my practice planning articles: wingt-coach.com/blog/#practice-planning
Buck series can be tough to do well. Trap and Sweep require strong guard play, and consistent and precise backfield footwork. Don't move on until you've mastered it. Might take two weeks.
I agree! So important that every player understands their importance. We would grade players after games, and with running backs and QB we would focus on carrying out fakes and (for RBs) how well they block. The glory comes from helping your teammates!
3:38 Maybe the DE wouldn't've come way upfield if he hadn't seen the OG coming at him! I know, he was probably coached to box, but he might've slanted more inside if he didn't see the guard coming.
Only on the 3rd rep did I see the footwork I'd want from the trapper. Does it matter to you, or is the both-feet-pivot just as good for your first move as the bucket step?
Coach: I have been running some of your plays with my 5th and 6th graders along with the Raymond and Evashevski Wing-T that I ran in high school in 1958 which resulted in an 8-0 youth football season this year. I have your book with the video links and would like to get any plays you have added since you published your book. Great stuff! Thank you.
The rules work against any front, and the examples I give in the books focus on a generic odd front (3-5-3 / 3-3 stack etc.) and a four man even front. I know first hand that adjustments are required depending on specifics of what you are facing, but even a 5-3-2-1 can look different depending on the defensive specifics, personnel, etc.
I have your book and cards and would like to get anything more recent than 2015 that you have. I ran the Evashevski version of the Wing T (two TE) in high school in 1958. Nice work!
Thank you Richard! Anything more recent is on my web site. As I'm not coaching these days there haven't been as many updates. Feel free to email me if any specific questions come up.
Because our blocks are primarily angle blocks (down and gap, traps and pulls) the deeper spacing gives the OL more time and space to get the first 1-2 steps in before contact with the enemy.
I ran the wing t in high school in 1958. I would like to see your offnese run against the 5-3 defense which is what most of the youth teams we face run. Thank you.
You can Christopher, which would be a wide version of buck sweep. Most Wing-T purists run buck sweep as essentially an off-tackle play, having the wing go to second level to take linebacker and using play side guard to kick out the end.
Hello there, have you considered Episoketren System yet? Just simply do a google search. On there you'll find a great suggestions about how you can improve your soccer game. Why don't you give it a shot? perhaps it's going to work for you too.
How do you determine what four plays go on your script? Assuming you run these four plays consecutively, what happens when you get to a third down distance/situation where play #3 or #4 isn’t appropriate?
After finishing my scouting report I would come up with a list of our “best plays” to run against the opponent. This factors into the script. Your point is valid and it is a trade off of speed vs. perfection. If we didn’t get the hoped-for gains on first and second down, we might call off the auto script and change plays.
