Welcome back to another episode of The Board Drill Podcast! In this episode, Kyle sits down with Coach Tyler Richins, head coach at Sugar-Salem HS in Idaho, to take a deep dive into the Wing-T's inside run game—specifically belly, trap, and iso variations that don’t always get the spotlight.
If you've ever been gashed by a team in the Wing-T or are looking to evolve your own scheme with more physicality inside, this one is packed with actionable insight.
