      It is a great high school offense, especially with smaller schools. High School classifications can be odd. In my state we have 7 classifications. My high school is a 7a with 1300 students. Almost every other school in our 16 team 7a classification has 2000 plus students. I have seen time and time again my local high school try to get into spread shootouts with them and get beat by 40+ points. The last time we were good we ran the wishbone. Go figure. Smaller schools should run offenses like the Flexbone and Wishbone. It is the only hope. Army, Navy, and Air Force prove these points with less talented teams, but are still able to compete with teams with 4 and 5 stars players. It takes a lot of time for these teams to game plan against plus it helps you neutralize their superior talent.

    John...Might i also suggest checking out Hawaii offenses from 1988-1995, when Paul Johnson ran the Spread Option(variation of Flex-bone), AFA btwn 1982-95(Ken Hatfield/Fisher DeBerry-HC), Calif. De La Salle btwn 1992-2004(Bob Ladouceur-HC) & Georgia Southern(1997-2001)/USNA(2002-2007), Georgia Tech(2008-2018)...All coached by Paul Johnson. From 2007-2022, Johnson "disciple" Ken Niumatalolo was USNA HC....

    Thank you for this excellent presentation Jason. We (our family) have been passionate Army fans since 1926. My Dad, Charles was USMA (1930). My brother, Jerry was USMA (1955)...I, too, was privileged to be an Army Officer (1966-1968). You video, here, clearly shows the nuances of the great Army Triple Option...a style of football which we believe is the purest in the country.

  • @timessquare8262
    @timessquare8262 2 роки тому +1

    Thanks for this breakdown. I know this is two years old, but I thought I would comment on the first play anyway. I think this is just a fullback dive instead of a trap. The guard and center execute a fold block. To some extent, I acknowledge that I may be arguing semantics, but given that this is presumably the first play call on the opening series, this is a statement to the defense--we will run our fullback! Trap plays usually seek to widen a player out of position (on this play, if it was a trap, it would seek to widen the 4 or 4i technique DT). This play is just a mano-y-mano gut punch. I coached for many years in small towns in western kansas. Stopping this offense is tricky!

    The wishbone doesnt let your backs hit the line as fast, and gives the defense more time to read and react to your blocking. The flexbone also functions kind of like a doubles 4wr spread in some ways, and the wishbone would not allow the skill players those favorable match ups they get with motion, and making the defense tip their hand with symmetrical formations.

    Coach in your history of the Wishbone there is one Big exception about it. Bear Bryant's wishbone teams. They threw and hurt defenses from that formation (they used a couple of others including what we call the Flexbone formation). They put three QBs in the NFL. Bryant's Wishbone was a passing threat. The games are here to explore.
    The Trap option is a wonderful offense as well. Used by East Carolina and Syracuse.

    Coach outstanding job! No, No, Wishbone. Played for the University of the Pacific(Stockton, Ca) We ran the run and shoot, west coast offense. We lacked a true 'QB', Randall Cunningham style QB-Who we played against us and ate us up as we lost using the WB! In the spring of 1985, Coach Bob Cope changed the offense to the WB and recruited JC Qbs to fit the new offense. Hugh Jackson, now a NFL coach was our QB. All of us WRs were out of jobs. We dominated the first three games because of the extreme style difference. However, by the fourth game, all the next opponents made their adjustments and we were cooked! After two years running the WB offense Coach Cope was fired. The replacement coach went back to the West Coast offense until John Gruden, then TE coach broke a few NCAA rules and which consequently killed the program. Flexbone would have been a much better alternative!

    Play 1: It looks like 3 is trying to get up to the second level to push the backside ILB away from the play. He does cut off the Will.
    Play 3: the play side end and Sam did an amazing job of beating their blocks and stringing it out. Number 6 (ILB? SS?) of course still had to make an amazing play. That was an excellent play choice for Army and Navy needed all their skill and luck to stop it.

      I think you definitely need to run Midline - It can work against everything. I'd also run a toss or sweep and then a counter. Then add in a play off the sweep and the counter and a pop pass off the midline. Just my thoughts.
