Message: [QUOTE="SBU72, post: 987898, member: 741"] Why would they play m2m against the scout O? One of the things about playing zone (as observed by the announcers and JB) is that it forces the opposing team to run a zone offense which is different than what they normally run and has far less variations. It forces the other team to adjust. Also while the zone has some m2m principles, it doesn't have them all. If it was so close then more teams would go back and forth. And if the zone has a failure, the coaches make adjustments, just like with any defense. We are constantly reminded that this is now your "tavern league" zone but a complicated defense. Basically, I too would like to see SU vary their defenses along the line of what Louisville does but it ain't going to happen at least the next few years. [/QUOTE]
