Flexbone Mentality: Getting BACK TO BASICS
December 9, 2025
In today’s video, Establishing a “Back to Basics” Flexbone Mentality, Dr. Lou Cella explains how elite programs win by simplifying, refining, and recommitting to core fundamentals that drive consistent performance. However, this message extends far beyond one video—because this “back to basics” approach is the foundation of everything the Triple Option Football Academy provides to high school football programs nationwide.
The Academy teaches and perfects the core plays that create real structure, real identity, and real results: the Zone Dive Series, the Midline Triple Option, and the Toss Series. These sequences form the backbone of successful Flexbone teams, and they give your offense the clarity and consistency needed to dominate week after week. Through our Triple Option Football Academy Camps, your program receives high-rep, on-field teaching that installs these concepts cleanly and quickly, allowing your offense to improve immediately.
Furthermore, the Online Academy offers year-round instruction, daily implementation guidance, and complete installation plans—all designed to help you stay disciplined, stay efficient, and stay true to the fundamentals that make the Flexbone so powerful. Camps run $2,997–$3,997, and full access to the Online Academy is $997.
Therefore, when you adopt a back-to-basics Flexbone mentality, you’re not just simplifying—you’re building a system that works every year, at every school, with every roster. The Triple Option Football Academy gives you the blueprint to make that happen.
