I was already a fan of Stacks, Bunches, and tight splits.
But after Glazier Clinics this weekend, definitely put some ideas for wrinkles and utilize them even more!!
Alright offensive guys…is anyone running tight stacks (within 5-6 yards of the Tackle) and if so why do you like it?Looking for ideas
One example - an attached TE with a tight stack to the quick side.
