A Gap Powerby Rich HargittViews: 5673$34.99
The Spread Attack no longer needs to be considered a finesse offense. This course gives Football Coaches the tools to implement a physical approach in the Spread with the A-Gap Power Scheme. The term "Power" is thrown around in coaching circles to a great degree. However, a large percentage of coaches draw up C Gap Power when referring to the play, and all too often "C Gap" equates to a two-back offense. This course takes a deep dive into the A Gap Power, a scheme much more conducive to Spread one back offensive attacks.
What will a Coach gather in this course from Rich Hargitt and the Surface to Air System attack:
- The Fundamental "Musts" of properly blocking the A Gap Power
- Blocking A Gap Power vs. the Over Front (To the 3 technique side)
- Blocking A Gap Power vs. the Okie Front
- Blocking A Gap Power vs. the Under Front
- Blocking A Gap Power vs. the Stack (3-3) Front
- Blocking A Gap Power vs. a Four Strong defensive alignment
- Over 25 minutes of Game Film. Teaching the A Gap Power

Surface to Air Offense: RPO Structureby Rich HargittViews: 7875$34.99
Want to use the RPO in your playbook but not sure where to start?
Rich Hargitt, creator of the Surface to Air System, takes you through his installation process, as well as some of his favorite plays, and gives you a fundamental understanding of what the RPO is, why he likes it so much, and how you can implement it into your program.
This course covers topics such as:
The two main categories of RPOs and how they're taught
Coach Hargitt takes you through the QB's reads on the board and on film, and gives you a simple teaching method that will give you answers during a game, as well as when you're trying to install this with your team.
Gives you a solution for complex defenses
Defenses today are better than ever, and you need answers. With the RPO, you'll always give your QB a place to go with the football. If you've got a young or inexperienced player at QB, it can help you manufacture big plays and consistent yardage while keeping the reads and progressions very simple.
Easy to run but hard to defend.
The RPO is based on time-tested offensive principles, only applied to new plays and formations. The offense is trying to make the defense wrong no matter what they do, and so the defense has to spend a lot of time preparing for every scenario. Keep your opponents up at night trying to think of ways to stop you.
Prepare your players for the next level.
Colleges across the country have added the RPO to their playbook. Give your kids a leg up on the rest of the competition by running a college-ready offense at the high school level.
