Over the past several years, Greg Proffitt has put a new spin on the wishbone offense his father Gary made famous at Goldthwaite, incorporating the schemes and philosophies of “the bone” out of a pistol look.
In 2018, the younger Proffitt and his Eagles could make the biggest departure yet from their ground-and-pound roots.

And Proffitt believes the shift will put his players in the best position to earn their 15th consecutive playoff berth.
