Why using TTC bases ? typical beginner question

[Coach K-LO]

French Guy,

Good luck in your tweaking beginnings! It will take time to master the skills, but it is worth the investment.

The use of TTC bases can be explained in a number of ways which some have already expressed. Here are some other aspects that can be included in your game play.....

.... like I had mentioned before, you can use the TTC to create different blocking patterns. LT blocks to the left and LG blocks to the right it should create a hole between the two. you can creat double team blocks, pulling linemen, all block to one side, wedge blocking. And the best thing is you can control how much torque on each player....

.... use as RB ... can move the pile on dive plays; can sweep into any hole along the line iof scrimmage, not just around the corner.

practice session for you:
take 4 players on both sides of the ball (O - RB, TE, RG, RT); [D - DT, DE, OLB, SS] and setup where the DT will be over the RG, DE over RT, OLB can be over the TE or inside/outside the TE, and the SS where you like to place him. The RB will be running the basic sweep, but in the exercise you will work on the angles and the blocking and the running pattern from the RB to run in all the holes that are possible. turn the dial for the RG to left and RT to the right and try to have the RB "cut" into that hole...then have him cut in the hole between the RT and TE....then run all the way to the outside...

After you run a few practice sessions, you begin to see the merits of TTC baseology and how it can work for you....

thank you for the lesson


As I said, I 'll start with my linemen, trying to learn how to use wisely that dials options.

After that I'll try to make RBs !


BTW, any clue for my last questions ?

By the way, you're talking about control : on a rule point of view, when do you turn that dials ? on placing pivot sequence? or perhaps you don't turn any dial during the game ?



Another question :

Quote:
TTC's are better for strength and rookies are better for speed.
What about the Proline strong rookie bases ? Could they be good candidate for easy tweaking mixed strenght/speed athletes ?

thanks
