It may be the hot new thing in football, but coaching RPOs is here to stay. Check out this simple primer for adding Run-Pass Options to your Offensive System.

Thinking about coaching RPOs in your offensive system? There’s a few things to consider first.

This episode of The Football Coaching Podcast is a basic introduction to using Run Pass Options, no matter what offensive system you currently run. If you can add this new phase to your offensive attack, you could really open up the scoring next season!

If you can’t block ‘em, read ‘em. That’s what the Option Gurus like to say… but how do we read ‘em!? Listen to find out!

I love Option Football. Any style. Flexbone Option, Split back Veer, Zone Read Option, or today’s most advanced Run Pass Option plays. At the end of the day, it’s all option reads.

This episode of The Football Coaching Podcast focuses on coaching option reads for your Quarterback. How do you read the Dive Key? How do you attack the Pitch Key?

The Miami 4-3 Defense is one of the most successful defenses of the last 30 years. Let’s break down the 1996 Miami Hurricanes 4-3 Defense Playbook.

The Miami 4-3 Defense is one of my favorite defensive schemes out there. In the previous episode of The Football Coaching Podcast, we talked about the foundations.

In this episode, I’ll dive into the 1996 Miami Hurricanes 4-3 Defense playbook. This very detailed playbook gives a look at how the defense was evolving throughout the 1990’s at the college level.

How did the Miami 4-3 Defense come to be one of the most popular defenses in football today? Here’s the background.

When Jimmy Johnson installed his 4-3 Defense at the University of Miami, he built a great defense. It continues to expand and adapt with the evolution of offensive football, year after year.

In this episode of The Football Coaching Podcast, we’ll look back at the origins of the 4-3 Defense, before Miami. The Even 4-3 Defense and Tom Landry’s Flex 4-3 Defense get examined.

Then we’ll break down the basic philosophy and foundations of the Miami 4-3 Defense that I teach today in our 4-3 Defense System.
