Coaching the Option Wing Offense

Summary: A coprehensive blend for offensive systems that will produce
Review: This is a must read for those just starting or for those who have coached and need some new ideas. This book is very well laid out from start to finish. I read the entire 317 page book in less than two days (I could barely put it down to take a break). This book gets the reader to start being creative with their own established offense yet would allow the beginning coach to create an easy to implement (and understand) offensive package.

The offense can be run from any formation and discusses any changes to be made versus the numerous defenses out there. The blocking rules and line calls are simple (you do not need to use them all).

The passing game allows for maximum protection to shotgun with 5 receivers, and also includes the play-action game. The pass routes are diagramed versus cover 2, 3, and man out of the 4-3, 4-4, 5-2, and 5-3 defenses.

The author uses five base running plays, a quick passing game, and utilizes the draws and screens effectively.

The book also covers daily practice plans (with examples), and weekly game plans. The connection is made from day one of practice through to game one play number one.

A great book!
