CONSTANTINE'S WING T

Constantine's coaching staff breaks down their unique WING T offense.

[@Golfing422]

My sons team uses this and it’s great for a few reasons. Nobody sees it, so nobody’s that good at stopping it and all the competitors run a variation of the same spread offense, most of them without the players to do it. It translates to you don’t have to have the best team to have winning seasons. Some games, the average drive is three plays until they score a td. It’s that effective. While you watch other teams struggle trying to pass because they don’t have the qb, or guys who can catch and get separation, or an extremely fast back that can be effective in a slow developing spread run play that begins seven yards back. In the spread, by the a back reaches the los, the entire defense knows who has it and where. It takes amazing backs in that offense.

Pennfield used the Wing T for a lot of years and has a State Championship with it. It's fun watching good Wing T teams. Climax Scotts went to the Wing T and made themselves a good high school football school. Constantine has always been a powerhouse football program.

Personally didn't run it in school but after I graduated a new coach came and installed the WT and they had success with it for almost a decade until he left. The offense left with him and they havnt had a winning season since 2009. They been trying to run the spread since. Best season since that year was a 4-5 a couple years ago.

[@Golfing422]

My son played on a spread team last year. It’s dismal if you don’t have good talent in all the positions. Now it’s the T and 50 points a game. I don’t understand why coaches feel it’s so necessary to run a college offense and lose lots of game each year doing it. It’s an ego thing I believe.

[@coachredbone]

If you weren't in the room with Knute Rockne or Amos Alonzo Stagg, then you would know that everything in football is stolen or plagiarized to an extent. It's all about what defining what your system is and how well you can teach it and get your players to execute.

[@mr.andr3a468]

I really like this offense however its not a wing t, simply because they don't have a wingback on the field...however it has a lot of wingt's features like fakes and misdirection so Its quite similar

[@jdoyle7768]

I remember running single wing/ wing t before playing spread out of unbalanced shotgun. Yeah I'm an Ithaca yellow jacket alumni . Class of 2003

[@bricksquad7993]

Sure wish we ran this at my Alma mater

[@Tripp42]

God bless those pulling guards!

[@midnighter64]

What’s the difference between the power T and the wing T? This looks more like a power T with the 3 backs lined up horizontally. I thought the wing T usually has two backs with one to the side of the other back then a wing back by the tackle? Either way it’s an awesome offense. Just needed clarification because this is what I want to run.

[@gtoolejr]

Plays almost more like the box

[@andrewclarke3044]

Looks like a full house wing t not a traditional wing t.

[@rlh231]

All full house t

[@demasbros8640]

this offense is the best

[@ericfischer665]

Demas Bro's no it is not

[@gtoolejr]

It is if it works for them

[@coltonsmith8546]

This Eric Fischer dude must want to run the spread or something and has something against pounding the rock on the ground. At the highschool I coach at we went 9-2 in 16 with a 1500 yard all state back then this past year in 17 we went 8-3 with a 1500 yard halfback and a 1900 yard fullback. Sometimes you have to use the scheme/adjust your offense to what players you have. And we ran the old school delaware t, our best plays were trap/sweep/(g) down and then our criss cross and waggle. I would love to get my hands on some of this material to put it to use to give us a different look.

[@ericfischer665]

Oh no I'm very much for pounding the rock. In fact I favour the flexbone offense.

[@briansass4865]

Then you should look at loose red 100 formation and 40 series plays. That's Deleware Wing T nomenclature for the flexbone. It's an offensive system. Not a formation.

[@coachanderson2704]

I want this playbook lol.....anybody?

[@areshotrod6395]

Trap, power, Qb keep, PA pass, counter

[@deadskieshc]

Wow, ignorance us bliss. Definitely wing-t football. No one ever said they were Delaware wing-t, but if it smells like a Blue Hen. Main three plays series in this offense are a combination of 20, 30 and 80 series (trap, power, keepout). And defensive gurus head to Michigan and play these teams. Very tough offense to defend. A simple approach of "read the guards" just does not work. You need to...

[@ericfischer665]

Jeff Scissors read guards squeeze tightends down hella hard and most importantly don't get trapped

[@kielweiss3606]

That's true against any offense.

[@ericfischer665]

Kiel Weiss I guess but not all offenses even use tightends

[@shmorpiem6323]

This is where the defenses under Bo Schembechler would try to essentially plug the holes by angling down and submarining the offensive linemen. A skill which nowadays has disappeared, as offensive linemen use their hands. But, the Army over the last 10 years had perfected, as they're outweighed by 30-40 pounds per man.

[@JohnSmith-kl6cx]

James is right looks wishbone

[@ericfischer665]

John Smith it's not wishbone

[@ericfischer665]

John Smith if it was the fullback would be closer than the other backs

[@ericfischer665]

John Smith that formation that they use is called the Full House T

[@jamesandlindsay]

Definitely not the wing-t.. but a good looking wishbone team for sure.

[@ericfischer665]

James Thurman it's not wish bone it's wing T, with a different formation

[@Steven313]

Completely useless in my opinion if you play a team who's defensive coach isn't dumb.

[@nathancrapo9788]

+cvandenberg15 I was on a Wing T team that went 4-5, we played the State Champs from a devision above us from across the state(Livonia-Clarinceville) and we ran for over 500 yards and won. One play our fullback ran 1 yard away from their safety who then ran away from him. They didn't know who had the ball, unless you see the T on a regular basis it is impossible to defend.

[@ericfischer665]

Nathan Crapo the team you played was very undisciplined I guarantee you

[@DalonCole]

You should coach HS football then since you are obviously smarter than everyone else. I know a bunch of DC's in Texas that are damn good that got humiliated by Wing T Offenses.
