Message: [QUOTE="PhatOrange, post: 579852, member: 229"] I just don't like the approach. I've never in my life seen a man-up approach that carries the ball so much as Syracuse. I don't even know what to call it - it's like a wheel where they run with the ball and then pass it backwards. I know times have changed but the general EMO philosophy was to get the defense to commit to the ball while moving the ball as quickly as you can around the perimeter. A defense can't typically keep up when the ball is move through the air, and you get nice shooting lanes, skip passes are open and a good crease man should get a lot of shots. Everybody's EMO approach seems to be the same except for Syracuse's. [/QUOTE]
