.Since our last post here there have been a number of changes. I am at a new school, we made a deep playoff run, and now most of the country is spending most of their time at home as we all struggle to deal with Covid-19 and its impact. Hopefully we'll have some new scheme posts up soon. Bobby Petrino has a new book out: Inside The Pocket
Coach Petrino has a......complicated legacy. But one thing that is beyond question is that he is one of the finest offensive minds of the past 30 years. He has had incredible offensive success at multiple levels of football and I have always been intrigued by his system, which has a lot of similarity to the famous Jack Elway/Dennis Erickson/Mike Price/Joe Tiller system but that branched off in entirely unique directions. If you are spending time at home due to Covid-19 you owe it to yourself to order this book. It is phenomenal. The best way I can describe it is: what if you had an elite offensive mind go through his entire playbook with commentary on every play. That would be a valuable experience. Petrino does that here. The book is 482 pages long! There are 123 pages on his dropback package alone. There are sections on empty, pass protection, RPOs, the zone and power read series he used with Lamar Jackson, and more. A great resource for OCs everywhere.
