They may practice man to man, but the 30 wins was a product of the zone. It's an adjustment that will take some time for both of them.

Zone doesn't hinder man to man either. If you have the body for man to man then you have the body.
All teams in college play man to man to their strengths just as we play zone differently each year to our strengths.

"If you're a man-to-man coach and the other team hits three or four shots, do you take timeout and go to zone?" Boeheim asked. "Of course not. So, I'm a zone coach. Am I supposed to take timeout and go to man? Why would I do that? It doesn't make sense. We're a zone team."
