Tyrone (OK): From 5–5 to State Champions in One Season
Tyrone needed a system that maximized talent and created immediate competitive advantage. Their program gained confidence because every player understood their assignment with total clarity. Tyrone’s offensive production exploded because the system created consistent execution across all positions. Their championship run demonstrates how structure and repetition create unstoppable momentum.
Full Testimonial (Josh Bell, Head Football Coach):
“In 2019 we missed the playoffs finishing 5-5 after reaching the semi finals in 2016 & 2017 and the quarterfinals in 2018. We were excited about the talent we had coming into 2020 but wanted an edge! Learning the triple option to add to our offensive sets was just what we needed.
We won the regional, area and the schools first state championship in 60 years. Our team averaged 51.4 points per game and scored a total of 668 points in 13 games.
We appreciated Dr Lou Cella’s no-nonsense approach to teaching the 8 Man triple option during our 2020 camp, and his desire to teach every kid, then let them get as many reps as possible with their new skills. The camp was organized and an overall quality event.”

Full Testimonial (Mark Kirchhoff, Head Football Coach):
“The biggest thing for us is that it gave our kids the opportunity to work together in our offensive system before the season started – the techniques and fundamentals they learned was so big, so was the team bonding, and so was having an outside source (Lou Cella) teaching them – this was invaluable.”

Full Testimonial (Marshall Hahn, Head Football Coach):
“We were looking to take that next step, and felt that a camp might be just what the doctor ordered. We were not disappointed. We were already committed to the triple option, but the camp brought a much higher level of focus and understanding to our team, both players and coaches. Now when we tell our kids to ‘trust the system’ they know what we’re talking about.”
