Solid Screen From the Pistol

I do want to add a Stretch Play from the pistol and use Rich Rodriguez and Herb Hand running back reads for the Zone: Bounce, Bend, Bang.  It also will allow us to run the Solid Screen (Tony Franklin System)  without having to do it just from a Sprint Out, Hand Sweep or Speed Option Look which we will do those three looks also.

I believe that Screens can add up 100 plus yards to your offense in yardage and can add about 50 to 75 in hidden yardage both in the passing game and running game because it wears out the defensive line and also takes the aggressiveness out of them. 

WVU Offensive Play Book RichRod Era

Rodriguez's West Virginia teams were Big East Champions in 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2007 while appearing in two BCS bowls, the 2005 Sugar Bowl with a victory over Georgia for an 11-1 record and a victory over Oklahoma in the 2007 Fiesta Bowl to finish 10-2 shortly after Rodriguez had left for Michigan. His 2006 club finished 11-2 after a victory over Georgia Tech in the Gator Bowl. He also coached the Mountaineers to the 2002 Continental Tire Bowl and the 2003 and 2004 Gator Bowl.

Competitors Creed 

It is not the critic who counts,

not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled 

or where the doer of deeds could have done them better.

The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena;

whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood who strives valiantly;

who errs and comes up short again and again;

who knows great enthusiasms,

the great devotions, 

and spends himselfin a worthy cause; who at the best knows

in the end the triumph of high achievements;

and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, 

so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls

who know neither defeat nor victory

~Theodore Roosevelt, April 10, 1899

Last one with the chalk offense Part 1

Why is the option when executed so beautiful to watched?  Simple it reminds me of my football camp Counselor days in the late 1990's.  That's where I meet one of the best modern day option coaches Jerry Campbell. He would get a some poor slap coach on the white board and whip him when they did something not sound with that slap's X&O's.  He had such swag when he was explaining his Option on Me system.

• Odd front run lead option to the tight end.
• Even Stack (4-3) run speed option to the Split End Side.
• Even Front (4-2-5) run midline to the 3 tech.  

This system is a check system now fast forward to Rich Rodriguez and his spread offense more specifically his outside zone play.  Using Blue or 20 personal the Blocking back and the Back running the ball both read the zone play.

After one of his bowl games at West Virginia his opponents asked how he called the right play for each of their called blitzes.  The last one with the chalk won again but not only on the board but on the field.
