Message: [QUOTE="73CAV, post: 1146246, member: 3916"] Just curious about your thoughts on your second tour through the ACC. Historically (and I've been watching ACC basketball for nearly 50 years), there haven't been many good zone defences in the conference, and no one played them regularly, only as a change of pace. That said, now that most of the coaches have seen Syracuse's zone up close and personal, what sort of problems does that create for Boeheim going forward? Admittedly, the Syracuse zone is up there with Heathcote's Michigan State zone and Chaney's Temple zone, IMO, and not the ordinary run-of-the-mill-we-don't-have-the-athletes-to-play-man sort of zone you see from mid majors. Regardless, personnel changes notwithstanding, does it get easier or more difficult this year? [/QUOTE]
