[QUOTE="Jasoncuse, post: 2238048, member: 470"] For the most part, I think the zone builds in a pretty solid floor, but can cap the ceiling of the team. When you prioritize length, wingspan and defense over actual basketball skill and scoring, as we've seen in the past, there's only so far the program can go in any given year. I don't know if I'd say the program is hurt by playing zone 100%, but it certainly doesn't help, IMO. It definitely turns kids off from playing here, and rightfully so. But I think it's more than just the zone that may push kids elsewhere (i.e. offense). The only question is, would the program be better if we played a lot less or zone, or none at all? Who knows.
