Tim Callaghan – Head Coach

Power Cluster / Play action


1 Job

A player has only 1 job.


It is the coach’s job to teach the player
where to go, when to go, what to do
before, during and after he goes.
The most important job that the player
has is to go, with as much effort as his
heart can possibly summon from his
body.
Reason for our discussion
Offense bases out of a 2 back Set
We will add H and Gun to make things
Multiple
To understand the “Power Cluster” you need
to understand the “1 job” philosophy
Power gives our O-Line a simple package
We are a 80% Run First
Power is our Toughness Play
Build Toughness in Off-Season (15 min / Day)
Bring the pain Wed / Competition Thursday
Offensive Philosophy
As much diversity with 4 major Blocking
Schemes(80%)
Toss / Veer / Lead-G / Power Cluster
Play action off all (Similar to Zone Philosophy)
Other 20% comes from Play action and Sprint out
Use 3 step game to control perimeter
Assess how Fast, Smart, and Tough the other team
is
(Toss, Veer, and Power, not necessarily in that
order)

Fundamentals

Double Teams (Post – Clean)

GAP (Area inside of you)
(if Head up to inside, we consider that a Gap player)

Rules

Backside Base unless pulling


Each play has a front and back side
This cuts our learning down considerably
Front Side GOD / Back Side Someone Pulls
Center always blocks back to pulling lineman
7 tech rules – Split or Switch
2 man rule = EMOLOS Power and
Bootleg
Plays

Power- Double Power- Power


Stretch, Dart (Base up Pull Tackle)
Bootleg
60-70
Can Run all out of Gun
Changes in 2012

Center/ Speed allowed positive change


H Gave us more of a Balanced set
Moved to Quicker line (Guards) averaged
5’11 216 (6’5 275 biggest)
Gun more time for undersized line
Special athlete wanted to get about 10 more
touches to, weren’t going to throw more.
