9/8 Man Gun T System Playbook
If you coach 9-man or 8-man football, you already know the problem. Most playbooks are written for 11-man. The angles don't fit. The personnel doesn't fit. The space doesn't fit. You spend half your install time adapting concepts that weren't built for your game.
This book fixes that.
The Gun T RPO system was built by Coach Kenny Simpson, who has been running it at the high school level for years. Coach Jessee Wilson, head coach at Rocky Mountain High School in Wyoming with two state title game appearances in three years, took the entire Gun T and adapted it specifically for 9/8 man football. Same Wing-T principles. Same shotgun power-spread feel. Same RPO answers. Built for the field you actually play on.
What's inside:
- The full Gun T base run game (Buck Sweep, Belly, Counter, Jet) adapted for 9/8 man personnel
- A complete RPO package built off your base run schemes
- Roll-out passes, Flood, Snag, Waggle, Buck Pass, and the full screen game
- A 5-day installation guide you can take straight to fall camp
- Practical "8 Man Options" for every base play when you have to drop a body
- Formation tags, motion tags, blocking tags — simple enough that your kids can call them on the field
- How to organize a staff of 2, 3, or 4 coaches around this system
- Practice structure guidance for teams playing both ways
This isn't theory. This is the offense Coach Wilson runs on Friday nights. The same answers to the same problems you're facing right now — loaded boxes, undersized linemen, two-way players, limited practice time.
The Gun T works because it gives you a small number of plays that show up a hundred different ways. One series. Multiple looks. Built-in answers. Your kids learn fewer things but learn them deeper, and that's what shows up in November.
Simple isn't easy. But simple wins.
Also useful for 11-man coaches who run Gun T or want to install it. The answers-to-defensive-fronts section, the install guide, and the practice organization chapters carry straight over.
