Triple Option Football Academy: A Proven System for Drastic Program Turnarounds
Based on the testimonials, here are seven of the most powerful statements from coaches on how the Triple Option Football Academy and Dr. Cella helped them achieve an instant turnaround:
* “The Flexbone system reduced the learning curve for those two critical factors for us by about 2 years and allowed us to experience immediate success. The Camp/System gave us everything we needed at the end of camp for me to do long range planning for the entire season…” – Dr. Jimmy Woods, Head Football Coach, Timmonsville HS (SC)
* “Dr. Cella was efficient and helped our players really nail down the concepts that we needed to be successful. His practice plan and methodology of coaching has changed our program for the better. We went 11-2 in 2024, winning our first home playoff game in school history…” – Luke Dougherty, Head Football Coach, Haverford High (PA)
* “The academy was exactly what we were looking for and needed! The beauty of this offense is its simplicity in teaching what appears to be a complex system… We were more physical on both sides of the ball this year and it all starts with zone dive and option. Lou is ALWAYS available for questions…” – Brock Berryhill, Head Football Coach, Scobey (MT)
* “Dr. Cella’s academy is without a doubt the #1 resource for any coach… I was hired by Questa in May, immediately hired Dr. Cella, completed the Triple Option Football Academy, and five months later, we won as many games as the previous EIGHT YEARS COMBINED!” – Larry Roybal, Head Football Coach, Questa (NM)
* “Lou came in and transformed our football teams… Our turnover margin went from -11 in 2010 to +9 in 2011. We scored an average of 46 points in the last four weeks of the season… Ball security and fundamentals have always been the cornerstone of our program. Thank you Lou. You made the difference.” – Rob Ingram, Head Football Coach, Riverwood HS (GA)
* “This past offseason we made the decision to have Dr Cella run his Triple option camp for our program. This was one of the best decisions we made and we plan to do it again next year. With Dr Cella’s help, we established an Offensive Identity… Never before has each player and coach known undoubtedly their role within the offense. This has changed the trajectory of our program…” – Matt Hoekstra, Head Football Coach, Ontario Christian (CA)
* “The most impressive thing about him is his ability to teach players and coaches at a very rapid rate. His organization and time management are the best I have seen. You will learn how to efficiently run this offense and maximize your usage of time… I give him my highest recommendation.” – Anthony Sottasante, Head Football Coach, Tussey Mountain High School (PA)
