Midline Freeze

The next coaching clinic post will begin a series on the Ranger Midline Freeze Option. When we added this series in, offensive production went up a bunch - like double up. That's pretty good considering we had a good thing going already.

When I talk at the coaching clinics (not so much any more - invites to speak went way down when I went to work for BFS), I would talk about "Simple Complexity." The Freeze blocking assignments were the same whether we were in the Power Set or in Doubles Wide or Trips. See the online playbook at www.jvm.com/coachfree.

While our offense would execute the same blocking rules for the Freeze, the defense had to defend on one play a goal line offensive set and perhaps on the next play, have to defend a wide open spread set.

In addition, we also married the Freeze play action with our Quick Pass Offense which had greatly elevated our passing efficiency.

We are BIG on the FREEZE. You will like it.
