The Surface to Air System: Inside & Outside Zone video playbook by Coach Rich Hargitt provides a comprehensive look at the foundation of zone-based run schemes within a modern spread offense. This course breaks down the core principles of Inside Zone and Outside Zone, along with key variations such as Inside Zone “X,” Ladder concepts, and multiple perimeter tags that expand the run game’s versatility.
Through a combination of film and diagram-based instruction, the course details blocking structure, aiming points, backfield tracks, and how to create consistent movement against different defensive fronts. It also explores how to complement the zone run game with options like Speed Option, ISO elements, and protection schemes, helping tie the run and pass game together seamlessly.
Emphasizing tempo, spacing, and simplicity, Coach Hargitt demonstrates how to build a flexible, adaptable zone system that can be easily installed while still creating explosive opportunities. The result is a clear, cohesive approach to structuring a zone run game that stresses defenses horizontally and vertically within a high-powered offensive framework.
