• QB opens to the hole and steps with the backside
  foot to 4 oclock to the left and 8 oclock to
  the right. QB must clear for the FB
• Never cross feet
• Fullback Track
• The play side foot steps towards the 0 or 1 hole
• The Fullback track is directly up the centers
  BUTT
• Mesh
• We want the QB to get the ball as deep as
  possible
• The QB clears gets the ball out and we call it
  Riding the Table
• The Fullback runs his track as hard and fast as
  he can (BTS) and never grabs or reaches for
  the ball
• Read
• On the snap the QBs eyes go directly to the read
  key (3 tech)
• When in doubt QB always gives
• Fullback runs with head up and eyes open to read
  the center and play side guards block looking for
  second level defender

  down hill as hard as possible (BTS)
• FB stays this track until he gets to the second
  level covering the ball with both hands after
  clearing the second level FB is taught to find
  open real estate and SCORE
• Reads
• On the snap the QB eyes go directly to the 1
  read key which is the defender that is head-up to
  outside of the offensive tackle
• After read 1 is made the QB gets his eyes to 2

  call.
• Pitch Relation
• The QB runs plays and sets the course for the
  pitchman, we teach our halfbacks to be at 5 X 1
  pitch relationship.

  relationship at all cost and be prepared to get
  the pitch and open real estate and SCORE
