Wampus Attack: The Run-and-Shoot Revolution Continues (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781530251452)

Years ago, one coach, Glenn "Tiger" Ellison, the creator of the Run and Shoot offense, predicted that the Run and Shoot would be the offense of the future and teams would put the "oval-shaped ball" on display. In many respects, this statement seems to have come true. The Run and Shoot started a revolution decades ago and we can see the fruits of it today, in the 21st Century. Today, spread offenses practically dominate the football scene. They may not look like the original Run and Shoot systems but in reality, they use many of the same principles that derive from the Run and Shoot. In effect, the spread offenses of today are basically just different versions or hybrids of the Run and Shoot. There may be differences between a Run-and-Shoot and a Spread Formation style of offense but the basic philosophy is the same: pass first, run second, and take what the defense gives you. The most common characteristic in both styles of offenses is that they put the oval ball on display THE WAMPUS ATTACK portrays a basic version of the Run-and-Shoot offense. Its main purpose is to help struggling smaller teams to be more successful offensively. A team blessed with great physical talent is what every coach hopes for - it certainly helps make coaching easier But what if a team does not have much (if any) physical talent at all? What does a coach do? Does he just surrender to the idea of a long difficult season? The answer is NO The coach should do everything possible to help the team succeed. Use brain power to find the solution The Wampus Attack's silent weapon is pre-snap motion. Football is a numbers game and it's to the offense's advantage if it outnumbers defenders at the point of attack. We use motion to gain a numbers advantage. Outnumbering the defense helps not only the passing attack but also the running attack. The Wampus Attack's simple motion rule not only gives you a pre-snap understanding of the defense but it also allows for an automatic changing of a play, silently, without the use of quarterback audibles. This simplifies the offense, reduces the quarterback's workload, and helps to lessen the odds of calling a "bad play."
