Message: [QUOTE="Sgt Cuse, post: 1389336, member: 1701"] Houston - I disagree that JB has doubled down on the zone. I think if JB has his preference he would stock his team with good offensive players who are long and lean - the MCW model and what should have been Battle. But I think JB looks to go offense first. I know it hasn't panned out recently, but I still believe that is his preference. And if players are on the same offensive tier, then the long player that fits the zone is taken. I think SU's recruiting has increased and out of the top tier JB has been able to pluck the longer player - like Malachi. But if unable to get the longer player, like Battle, I believe JB will go for the more offensively talented type like Gilbert over a lesser offensively talented zone type like Heurter. After Johnny we have seen DC2, Cooney, and KJ2 - all examples of offense over zone. [/QUOTE]
