This is where we completely erred in our attempt to become the "zoned" version of Notre Dame.

1.  You need a beefy white center.  It's a pretty important requirement if we're modeling ourselves after their more successful squads.  We went white everywhere else, but not at center.  :(

2.  You also need a capable ball handler at PG, and an athletic 3 or 4.  A bouncy sort of fellow for one of the forward spots will suffice, but he should be able to shoot a bit as well and dribble.  We hit on the "shoot a bit" but neglected the bounciness and the dribbling.  :(

The rest of your team can be awash with Boeheim Boys, but those two things are most certainly required.  We really muddied the whole thing up by trying to go with a slender bouncy 5, and a SF that sort of plays like their 5s, but too tiny to actually be a 5.

That doesn't' always stop us from trying our SF (Jimmy) at the 5, but still, it just doesn't work that way.

I assume we had a spreadsheet, someone mixed up some rows or columns and the roster ended up a bloody mess.

I blame the assistant coaches.
