Good morning Coach,

I completely agree coach! I would have 2 or 3 formations tops starting out and just install your Belly, G.O(Buck sweep) and your Down, and finish with Liz or RIP “REACH” that way you have every hole covered in and only having too teach a few things. That will also get your Tailback touches, as well as getting your wingbacks involved as well.

I was a true “Double Wing” guy for a long time. I then joined a staff that was all about the Spread and the Jet Sweep. I can honestly say that the Pistol Wing T that Rick runs is the absolute best! I Truly believe that it took both of my experiences as a coach both in Double Wing and in the Spread and it morphed the two into a truly effective offense! I can run everything that I’ve always wanted to run in both systems! I can run my everything that I have always ran just out of the pistol set. I highly recommend it! The #1 thing that Rick sells in his Pistol Wing T is that it’s a system! Not just a bunch of plays put together! I’m telling ya if you have the opportunity really dive into the Pistol Wing T system. It truly has all of the aspects that the other offenses had in my experiences. Also it takes the traditional Wing T concepts as well and just gives you more of an advantage to do more things out of the pistol look. I highly recommend it if you’re anything like me you like to run the football this definitely is the way to go if you’re committed to the Wing T or Double Wing for that matter this system was perfect for myself personally. I highly recommend it.

If I’m coaching a youth team that is 11U. If you’re looking at the Pistol Wing T system I would highly recommend installing the Buck Sweep, Belly, and Down. In the pistol Wing T they are families the G.O Family, the Belly Family and the Down Family. and if you have time for the younger kids the Liz and Rip family (Jet Sweep or Reach plays out of it good for youth in my opinion).

I hope that this helps coach! Have a great weekend and best of luck with your upcoming season!
