In Episode 6 of Let's Build an Offensive System we're going to break down the easiest way to get high percentage passes into your offense and that is through quick screens. Instead of complicated down the field blocking schemes we take basic blocks, both run and pass schemes, and focus more about getting the ball into space and letting our playmakers do the work.

The multiple options zone schemes can give you is definitely an advantage but with the power/gap scheme you are direction the ball to a specific gap which in turn has its advantages. Whether it is taking advantage of or isolating a specific defender, or perhaps simplifying reads for your back, the power schemes you to focus the point of attack of your run game.

Today in Episode 4 of our Let's Build an Offensive System series we continue with building our run game by introducing the natural complement to the inside zone which is of course the outside zone. I often call the term outside zone a "misnomer" in that while it creates the illusion of an outside run it is actually a scheme that can be hit at all points of the field. It creates lateral flow that when the defense tries to fit creates natural vertical cuts for the ball carrier.

The last 23 years has been interesting to say the least. And I thought since it's a quite time for Wisconsin football I could share some of these stories and give you all a bit of insight into the crazy world that is coaching football overseas. Today I bring you back to 2017 to a season that started with so much promise that was brought quickly back to Earth by the most unusual source.

In Episode 3 of our Let's Build an Offensive System series we finally get into some X's and O's and talk about the inside zone. The inside zone is one of the most versatile blocking schemes in that from such a relatively simple blocking scheme it is possible to build and entire run game through various backfield actions and tags while keeping the same blocking scheme.

Welcome to Episode 2 of our Let's Build an Offensive System series, and today, we’re diving into one of the most crucial aspects of football: communication. We’re taking plays off the page and turning them into a language players can remember, execute, and make instinctual. Football terminology can get out of hand, but I believe in keeping it simple, efficient, and effective—because the best systems are the ones players can actually use on the field.

We're in that awkward stretch between the end of the recruiting season and beginning of Spring ball, but instead of filling the time with meaningless news I want to get back to the basics of why I built this channel in the first place. In this series, we're building an offensive playbook from scratch! Whether you're a coach or a fan, this will help you understand what it takes to create, implement, and execute an offensive system.

Episode 1: Offensive Philosophy Before you can build a great offense, you need a clear vision and core beliefs. Without it, your playbook is just a random collection of plays with no focus or purpose.

Wrapping our look at what to expect from the 2025 Wisconsin Badgers offense we bring it all together by talking about building a complimentary play system. Building an offense is not just grabbing a bunch of plays that you like. Of course you have your schemes that you like and that you can coach up, but you need to build s system around those schemes. Plays that compliment each other's action, and the defensive reaction to your scheme. By doing this you aim to make defenses play assignment football and gain the ability to dictate the flow of the game.

This week's talk and talk is coming from my living room as we cover Max Steinecker's move to USC and what it means for the program, plus Nyzier Fourqurean’s legal battle for eligibility and how it strengthens the Badgers' cornerback room. A reminder if you haven't done so already check out my In Focus series, where I analyze Jeff Grimes’ offensive philosophy and how it fits Wisconsin football. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLGU8s3JR9i7aLTDGXeHaYncH9RT6diWVQ

Today we continue our deeper dive into the key aspects of Jeff Grimes' offensive philosophy by focusing on playaction passing. Effective playaction relies on exploiting defensive reactions to run actions, targeting defenders with dual responsibilities, and using mismatches to attack defensive weaknesses. The importance of realistic offensive line movement and blocking techniques is also emphasized.

After spending some time in the Dairy Raid classroom breaking down the hows and whys of playaction we'll take a look at the film at examples from Baylor, Kansas, and last season at Wisconsin to get a glimpse of how we can expect on the field in 2025.
