Gap Scheme RPOs: The Perfect Blend of Old School Physicality with New Age Versatility

Jay Walker, WR Coach, Prairie View A&M Full video available on Glazier Drive: https://production.glazierdrive.com/l... OVERVIEW This video breaks down a comprehensive RPO (Run-Pass Option) teaching progression system that combines gap scheme running plays with perimeter passing concepts. The coach demonstrates how they develop quarterbacks through three levels of reads: defensive ends (first level), linebackers (second level), and safeties (third level). CORE PHILOSOPHY The fundamental teaching principle is "if you have grass, take grass" - meaning quarterbacks should always look for the easiest completion first before progressing to more complex reads. This creates an "option effect" without running true triple option, giving offenses multiple answers against various defensive looks. FIRST LEVEL CONCEPTS The progression starts with basic gap schemes (GT Counter, Pin and Pull) paired with now screens and quick perimeter throws. Quarterbacks learn to check the "gift side" first - looking for easy completions on the edge before reading defensive ends in the box. Examples show successful conversions on third down situations where traditional dropback passing might risk sacks or penalties. ADVANCED APPLICATIONS The system evolves to include the quarterback as a runner in power schemes while maintaining perimeter answers. Empty formations with five-man protection allow the QB to become the ball carrier if edge throws aren't available. This flexibility proved effective against elite pass rushers like Colin Simmons (now at Texas). GAME FILM EXAMPLES Real game footage spans four years and multiple quarterbacks, demonstrating the system's versatility. Key examples include: State championship game execution with long trap/now screen combination Early season success against Galina Park Northshore using bubble concepts Non-district game against Longview High School featuring counter with hitch routes STRATEGIC BENEFITS The coach emphasizes making "box guys think and edge guys tackle" - forcing defenders out of their comfort zones. By combining physical gap scheme runs with quick perimeter passing, the offense creates constant conflict for defensive coordinators while building quarterback confidence through high-percentage completions.
