    Unless those people are hiding there posts I saw no one, unless we get more athletic players in thats the only way people would want it. I guess if you don't get a big enough kick out of losing by 10-20 points we can start losing by 40.

    Youre completely right. it worked for morgan's teams b/c he had athletic players. we dont. so no. however, we do need to get more agressive.

    Didn't work in Morgan's last year because he didn't have the personnel down low. And we have even worse personnel to run a press now.

    Re: Full court press

    Not enough athleticism on this team. We are wayyyyy too slow, opponents will just out run the press.

    Re: Full court press

    One of my favorite defenses to watch and run is the 1-3-1 3/4 court trap. You don't have to be athletic, just know your assigments and rotations. It's a ton of fun and VERY frustrating for other teams... I would LOVE to see us run this...

    Mac will never press unless it is desperation time...Just thought I would save some time in discussion on this topic.

    Re: Full court press

    We dont have the quickness and athleticism to be a full-court pressing team, unfortunately.
