Format: a printed book, shipped to you.

This is the starting point of the whole system. If you are installing the Gun T for the first time, this is the book, and you can install off it without buying anything else.

Most playbooks are a stack of plays. A coach reads one, likes four of them, puts them in, and finds out in week three that they do not fit together, so when a defense takes one away there is no answer. This one is built the other direction. A small number of plays that share blocking rules and backfield action, run from a lot of formations, so a defense that stops the look has not stopped the play.

Every play comes with the diagram, the teaching points, where it fits in your game plan, and when to call it and why. That last part is what most playbooks leave out, and it is the part that shows up on Friday night.

Who it is for: high school and youth coaches installing the Gun T from scratch. It does not assume you have run any of it before.

What it is not: it is not a season update and it is not the most recent version of what we run. 2.0 through 7.0 are the updates, and they build on this book rather than replacing it. Start here, then add the year you want.

What to do next

• Organizing the install and the practice week: Gun T RPO - Organizational Guide
• The first season update: Gun T RPO 2.0
• Coaching third through ninth grade: Gun T Youth Manual

Where this fits: this is a season update, not the starting point. It is what we ran and adjusted that year, and it builds on the Gun T RPO Playbook instead of replacing it. The books run in order, 2.0 through 7.0. If you are starting from scratch, get the Gun T RPO Playbook first at fbcoachsimpson.com/downloads/guntplaybook and come back to this one.

4.0 is the year the tight end became a real part of this offense. The additions were expanded tight end usage, a full set of new RPOs, and the Y and B Peek reads. Same offense underneath, with more answers for the looks that had been giving us trouble.

Everything in it comes with the install ladder, the teaching progression, the coaching points and the complete play design, so you can put a concept in on Tuesday instead of reading about it and hoping you got the idea right.

Who it is for: coaches already running the Gun T who want the version we ran that season, and coaches building the system who want the tight end material specifically.

What it is not: it is not a standalone system and it is not the current version. It builds on the Gun T RPO Playbook, and 5.0, 6.0 and 7.0 came after it.

• Starting from scratch: Gun T RPO Playbook
• The year before this one: 3.0 Book
• The year after: Gun T System - 5.0 Book

Format: a printed book, shipped to you.

Every line coach has stood in individual period with fifteen minutes and no plan, and run the same three drills he ran last week because those were the ones he could remember. The kids get reps. They do not necessarily get better.

This is a drill book built to be opened on the field. Stance and first step, footwork for run and pass, hand placement and punch, drive block, reach block, combo and double team, pass protection slide work, and sustained contact through the finish. Every drill has the purpose written out, the teaching cues, the errors you are going to see and how to correct them, and how to progress it as the kid gets better.

Every drill also carries a QR code. Scan it with your phone and you get real footage of that drill being run, with the coaching explanation from actual clinic tape. You are not looking at a diagram guessing what it should look like at speed, and you can hand the phone to an assistant so he sees the same thing you do.

Who it is for: offensive line coaches at youth, middle school and high school. It works no matter what you run up front, because the drills teach technique, not scheme.

What it is not: it is not a blocking scheme book. It will not tell you how to block an odd front or install gap scheme. It builds the technique that makes whatever scheme you run hold up.

What to do next

• Need the scheme side too: Offensive Line Manual
• Organizing your position group and your week: Offensive Line Coach Workbook
• A second voice on line play: Chip Seagle - Offensive Line Manual

Format: a printed book, 130 pages, shipped to you.

Youth football has a problem nobody says out loud. Most youth playbooks are high school playbooks with fewer plays in them. The plays still ask a fourth grader to read a defender, or to pull and find a linebacker in space, and then everybody acts surprised when it does not work on Saturday.

This is the Gun T built for third through ninth grade on purpose. Personnel comes first, how to figure out which kid belongs where based on what he can do right now rather than what you wish he could do. Then formations and motion, then a playbook built on rules, so a kid learns why he blocks the man he blocks instead of memorizing eleven separate assignments.

The back of the book is the part most youth coaches need most. How to organize a practice, what the teaching progression looks like, and how to divide up staff responsibilities when your staff is three dads and a grandfather. There is a section on adjusting the concepts as kids move from third grade up to ninth, so the same system grows with them instead of getting thrown out every two years.

Who it is for: youth and middle school coaches, third through ninth grade.

What it is not: it is not the high school Gun T. It is cut down deliberately. If you coach varsity, get the Gun T RPO Playbook instead.

What to do next

• Drill work and practice organization for the same age group: Youth Gun T Organization and Drill Manual
• Defense for the same kids: 34 Youth Defense
• When they move up: Gun T RPO Playbook

Quarterback is the one spot where you cannot coach the answer in the huddle. He either knows what he is looking at or he does not, and you find out on Friday night in front of everybody.

This is the reads, written down. Every RPO in the Gun T system with the progression, the defender he is keying, the trigger that tells him which way it goes, and the criteria for when to throw it, when to hand it off and when to pull it. Not the theory of RPOs. The actual reads, in language a sixteen year old can study on his own.

The rest of the book is mechanics and drill work, the footwork and timing reps that make the decision automatic instead of hopeful.

Who it is for: coaches running the Gun T at youth, middle school or high school, and quarterback coaches who want something to hand the kid instead of explaining it a fourth time.

What it is not: it is not a general quarterback development book and it is not a passing game install. The reads in it are the Gun T reads. If you run something else you will get less out of it.

What to do next

• Not running the Gun T yet: start with the Gun T RPO Playbook
• Coaching the outside of the same plays: Gun T Wide Receiver Manual
• The front side of them: Offensive Line Manual
