About this ebook

 Coach Formaz and Coach Ward share one of their successful concepts in their read game.  They illustrate how marrying the zone run concept with the stick and bubble pass concepts allows them to incorporate the read game with a quarterback who is not a runner.  This run-pass option is an effective way to attack the defense.  Multi-angle game cut-ups are provided.
