Publisher's Synopsis
Offensive Football at its Best-the Single Wing! In an easy-to-understand manual, Coach Bobby Anderson lays out strategies for winning football using the single-wing offense with an end over. The single wing is making a come back! When my sons played football at Providence Christian School of Texas I was surprised to see they ran the single wing. I had learned the single wing at The Lawrenceville School in New Jersey from where I graduated in 1972. The single wing is a very effective formation, and Coach Bobby Anderson is an outstanding practitioner of it as well as a great coach and mentor. The Providence football team went undefeated three of the five years he was there and lost only one game during another season. In 1970 I tried to convince Tom Landry to have the Cowboys run the single wing with Roger Staubach at tailback, Calvin Hill or Duane Thomas at fullback, and Walt Garrison at blocking back. He was concerned that it would confuse the offense more than the defense. I guess they did not need it since they played in the next two Super Bowls! However, I did notice that Coach Landry re-introduced its cousin, the shotgun, shortly thereafter. -Robert F. Murchison, fan of the single wing and son of the Dallas Cowboys' founder Coach Anderson knew he wanted to be a football coach early in life.
