Moveable Gap Philosophy

Coach Hendrickson begins this presentation by giving an overview of his offensive philosophy that utilizes a moveable gap system. The moveable gap player is a hybrid fullback/tight end that is used in multiple ways to create an additional gap in the formation that the defense has to account for after the snap.

Hendrickson also explains how the moveable gap player can be used in the passing game to put tremendous stress on the defense. Not only will you see how to use the movable gap player on the field - you'll also see how to identify the best candidates in your program to serve as the movable gap player.

Finally, you'll learn several play action concepts that will complement your run attack.
