Message: [QUOTE="Sbucketball, post: 4681939, member: 8555"] My first thought - also without really looking at the data or names - is this has to be heavily swayed because Cuse has been a zone program. JB recruited to his system (usually, at least), so he took HS recruits who first and foremost fit the mold of a zone player, although sometimes they wouldn't be as good at bball in a different system. So when they transfer out into a non-zone team, they risk being exposed since the old team (zone) fit their strengths/build but the new team (mtm maybe) didn't. Hence the downturn in production/minutes. And vice versa too - a good fit for the zone in a non-zone system could come to Cuse and play better because the system utilized his strengths. This wouldn't be true for everyone, but probably enough to make the data look great for Cuse. [/QUOTE]
