Thank you for the information. My highschool plays 8-man and this really helped knowing what to do
Really appreciate your videos. Your explanations are so simple still implying some knowledge.
Thanks, that means a lot! I’m just trying to help anyone looking for it!
@@8ManBreakdowns I just took a job this year as an 8 man football head coach is och and I've only known 11 man my entire life. Just seeing how you can transition some of the same schemes into the game makes it makes it a lot more simplified for myself. And you said it in one of your videos there's really not a whole lot of information out there for 8 man.
@@austonreed Congrats and best of luck to you!! Yes, there are definitely limited options for 8-Man and I’ve been around 8-Man my entire life (except JUCO) so I wanted to dedicate my videos specifically to 8-Man!
Great
Great video, thanks.
Thank you, really appreciate the kind words!
Our run centric, everyone starts league requires exacly 4 defenders on the line (for learning purposes and to let plays develop) we run like a 4-4-0 where the outside LBs are corners off the line for coverage and contain (and are a spot to hide your liability players). DT's 2 gap, MLB's need to be studs, and the ends need to be monsters 😆.
Nice, that’s interesting! So how do you assign pass coverage out of the 4-4?
@@8ManBreakdownswe are 5th and 6th grade so we don't get too many screens or shotgun... So the corners have whoever is on the end of the line. LB's have RB's. The monster ends disrupt everything/contain outside runs.
@@anman424 Nice, I like that!
What software do you use for your playbook. Thx much appreciated
I originally just used the Hudl playbook tool, but I only use Google slides now. It is a great free tool!
In trips is that f or slot wr always ineligible or is there a way to make all three eligible without adding the fourth wr
Great question Coach! As long as you have 5 players on the LOS, that F can be moved around or could be eligible in a trips set. Hopefully that answers your question!
Whats the most unusual offense you've ever played against?
That's a great question! I'm going to add this question to one of my upcoming podcasts, thank you for the comment!
Honestly I've seen several unusual offenses over the years, but probably the most unusual was a constant formation-shifting single wing style offense. Thinking back on it now, it was very confusing, unorganized and ineffective so my guess is that it was also confusing and unusual for the players running it!
Any way to get a playbook? Possibly coaching 8-man next year and would be a huge blessing, Thanks
Coach shoot me an email coachengelken@gmail.com
@@8ManBreakdowns Roger that I did this am. Thanks
I've alway thought having a running back who could throw the ball really exploits most 8 man defenses. Additionally, if playing on a 50 yard wide field throwing the ball to the sideline can really exploit a corner.
No doubt, absolutely agree!
What age group are you most experienced in?
I coached JH for 2 years, but this will now be my 7th year of coaching varsity HS football. So the HS age is the group I have the most experience in and I love it!
I'm about to try out for an 8 man pro league (QB position). I've read the rulebook and the rules about how defenses can line up have me anticipating a formation you didn't talk about which could be called a 3-1-4 (3 DL, a Mike, and 2 CBs and Safeties). I've been designing most of my passing concepts to attack that defensive set. Have you ever seen that set ran?
Great question! I have seen it ran, but it’s rare as a base defense. It’s more of a situational defense that we see. The majority of teams we see are heavy run teams and the 3-1 is very susceptible to the run. In obvious passing situations, several 8-man teams will run it especially against the spread, but it is essentially always used with man-to-man coverage!
Had no clue this was a thing. Why is there 8 man football? Is it cuz of student population? I really don’t see a point fr
Yes, very big in rural smalltown settings across the US. Mostly due to the low school population/enrollment numbers
