Frequently asked questions
What is the combination triple option?
It is Coach Dieterich's base play, folding the inside veer and outside veer into a single triple option so the quarterback and fullback run one mesh and one set of reads against any front.
Who should watch this video?
High school coaches installing or refining an option offense will get the most from it, but the mesh, pitch and blocking rules translate to college programs running the veer or any triple option scheme.
