    Shot in the dark here about an old eBook

    Does anyone have the Madden Lab Bowling Green playbook videos or know a way to get into the eBook? I have the eBook and of course the system has long been turned off. I used to have the username and password somewhere. I wanted to run this again one last time.

    Added my play call sheet.

    Sorry I don’t have any info on that, but I was always curious what formations were featured in that ebook. I was thinking Shotgun Split Slot, but I have no idea.

      Out of curiosity, how detailed was the ebook? Did it just show which plays to run, play breakdowns, etc.? I'm always fascinated with how people communicate this stuff whether it's an ebook, video, or something else. Thanks

        I used to get ebooks back in the Madden PS2 era from that Madden lab website back when dukegotgame ran it. He would put together an entire offensive scheme from an initial formation, with audibles, hot routes and their complimenting route combos, formation shifts, making entirely new plays that I’d never thought of. It was pretty eye opening stuff. I’m not really sure how good they are nowadays, but it really took you into the minds of the guys who saw the game in totally different ways.

          That's cool. I wonder how many plays he would cover for a single scheme. My scheme may end up being 40+ plays so maybe I'm going overkill with some of them. I can never tell how much detail people need to run a full scheme. Sounds like his weren't that deep but didn't need to be perhaps.

              It was very detailed and very good. It was in a self contained ebook and was very well done. HD video for the time.
