The Evolution of the GPS Run Game: Part 4: Flexing the TE (moving toward 3-wide)

How do you keep the gritty, deceptive, gap-scheme power of the traditional Wing-T alive in the modern era of spread football? You evolve. In this video series, we break down the schematic evolution of the Gun Power Spread system, tracing its roots back to the Hybrid Wing-T. We trace how the foundational rules of the Wing-T—down blocks, kick-outs, pulling guards, and putting defensive players in conflict—seamlessly transitioned into a modern, fast-paced shotgun attack. In parts 1 through 3 of this series, we covered our basic/core Wing-T running plays from under center, the Power and Counter series with a sniffer, and the beginnings of using the Gun to run Wing-T plays. In this video, we start running many of our core WT runs from the gun with a flexed TE and our H in a wingback alignment. What we cover: The Philosophical Shift: Why moving to the gun didn't mean losing our physical identity. Translating the Core Plays: How classic concepts like Buck Sweep, Power, and Counter adapt to modern shotgun alignments and RPOs. Creating Space & Conflict: Using spread formations to lighten the box while keeping the same gap-scheme blocking rules upfront. Quarterback Run Game: How utilizing the QB as a genuine run threat unlocks an entirely new dimension that traditional under-center packages couldn't reach. Whether you are a seasoned Wing-T coach looking to modernize your offense or a Spread coach wanting to inject true physical gap-scheme power into your system, this breakdown offers the ultimate blueprint.
