Summary: In American football each team has 11 players on the field at any given time. Offense is when a team has the ball and is trying to score. The offensive line is the line of 5 to 6 men blocking the defense from stopping the play. This line is critical to the success of a play and of a team. If one mistake is made the result could be catastrophic for the player with the ball. This offensive line is comprised of a Center who hikes the ball to the quarterback, two Guards on either side of him and two Tackles on the outside of them. In some cases teams will use what is called a Tight End that will line up just outside either Tackle to assist further. In most cases the better an offensive line is the better the team is all around. Without them the quarterback is in serious trouble!

In this 22 clip video series, not only will you be receiving instruction from one of the best offensive line coaches in the country but Coach Nunez will explain and walk through several different blocking techniques and give you tips as to what might go wrong and how to instruct the player on the best way to correct it.

About the Expert

A 32-year veteran of collegiate coaching, former University of Texas coach Tim Nunez has drawn upon his vast experience to create the Clique Of Offensive Linemen Camp. Nunez recently completed a five-year stint as Offensive Line Coach at UT where he directed an offensive line that featured an Outland Trophy finalist, seven All-Americans and six first-team All-Big 12 performers. Nunez' line helped the Longhorns offense become only the second offense in NCAA history to feature a 2,000-yard passer and rusher to go along with a 1,000-yard receiver in 1998. The UT offense was one of only four units nationally (first in school history) to feature a 3,000-yard passer, a 1,000-yard receiver and a 1,000-yard rusher in 1999. Prior to Texas, Nunez coordinated an explosive offense at Marshall during the 1997 season. Under his guidance, Marshall's offense ranked fifth nationally in scoring (37.8 ppg), seventh in passing (307.3 ypg) and 10th in total offense (444.9 ypg) as the Thundering Herd won the Mid-American Conference Championship. Marshall wide receiver Randy Moss and quarterback Chad Pennington flourished in Nunez' system in 1997. Moss set an NCAA record for touchdown catches in a season (25) and went on to earn first-team All-America honors. He also finished fourth in the Heisman Trophy balloting. A 32-year coaching veteran, Nunez tutored an offensive line that had all of its starters named to the All-Southern Conference team and helped Marshall claim the Division I-AA National Championship in 1996. Before Marshall, Nunez had coaching stints at Southwest Texas State and Tulane. He served as the Bobcats' assistant head coach/ offensive coordinator from 1992-95 and helped SWT lead the Southland Conference in rushing offense in 1992. In between his coaching stints at Tulane, Nunez coached at East St. John High School in Reserve, La., where he was the assistant head coach, defensive coordinator and secondary coach. A native of Port Neches, Texas, Nunez was an assistan
