"Sainted Six"

[CoachWiley1]

I have heard about a flexbone triple option offense called the "sainted six" does anyone have this playbook or can help me get this playbook ?

Are you talking about the OBrien offense?

Are you talking about the OBrien offense?

Not sure, it was referred to me as the Sainted Six

 

[Tigerfan85]

That’s new to me.

 

[CoachWiley1]

That’s new to me.

Me too but I am looking for something to install because the offense we ran worked but im looking to do something different and this came up so now I am trying to see if it is a thing, im fairly new to the sixman coaching game and looking for something that I can use thats effective

Ive heard that referred with like an 11 man youth offense, but nothing with 6 man.

I consider myself an "option" guy, and I've never heard of this term before. And I have looked up all kinds of option football. If you find something, let me know! Would love to check it out!

Randomly, I saw a clip probably 10 years ago of a team in a J-Bird look who ran a triple option offense.

QB would open up and hand off to FB running behind him.
RB would then come downhill and be the "dive" option of the triple with the FB reading the EMOL.
QB, after handing off to FB, would circle all the way around and become the "pitch" phase if the FB kept.

I have no memory of the blocking scheme, but I imagine you could run it similar to inside veer? Maybe a down blocking scheme to handle the weakside edge.

Creative! A bit unhinged, but creative.
