Particularly the I-formation, I need you. I am majoring in physical education and also getting a teacher's license for English as well. On top of that, I plan on coaching high school football. I spend a lot of time thinking of what I want to run, and I have what I want my base offense to be (similar to Georgia Tech's offense), but I want a complimentary offense for change of pace purposes. I chose the I, as I intend on playing smash mouth football, then taking advantage of defenses who sell out on the run with crisp play action. My problem is, I can't figure out how to make the passing tree I have for the option work for the I.

So, does anybody have any ideas for terminology on passing plays? I am completely drawing a blank.

Also, if this is in the wrong place, sorry. Looked to be the only place I could post it.

You may need to build your offense around the talent you have. Some towns the elem and middle schools might be organized enough to feed to your system on the high school level but that's tough to do.

If you have superior runners, decent blocking, sure I might be good.

I prefer flex offenses. At times run, times pass.

Bring this offense back because many don't run it and it's a pre cursor to the spread we have now.

I'm no coach, but you can find some good boards out there for this type of thing.

3 step routes tend to be hooks and slants to the receivers to offset heavy pressure and press coverage while the TE (or slot) either goes up on a post or out (Boise St toasted VT on a play action with the TE running a post last night).

5 step routes typically have an outside receiver on one side running a post or squaring off on an in route on one side, the interior receiver (a TE or slot) going outside with the flanker going inside in some fashion (or vice versa) or having the flanker on a go route to burn them deep.

A favorite of mine on Madden (for serious!) is to run a play where the inside receiver runs a go while flanker runs a 10-15 yrd dig to take advantage of the safety going deep while the TE drags across taking advantage of the clear out.

I can tell you it will be no mean feat to install the triple option at the HS level, but it obviously can be run out of the I as well as the wishbone and the veer.

Triple option teams have very, very few pass plays due to the sheer complexity of the running plays.
