Message: [QUOTE="Chin Diesel, post: 3445653, member: 34"] Yeah there are differences with sports but coaches generally know what players were supposed to be doing. Analytics can help quantify them though. In football, a lineman choosing to double inside or outside on a DLineman can affect throwing lanes for a QB possibly keeping a primary target who was open from being thrown the ball. For UConn basketball I'd say similar things with Polley and his longtime low rebounding numbers. Coaches could obviously read a box score and look at film and Polley continued to play consistent minutes and continue to have low rebounding numbers. I tend to think Hurley had other plans for him rather than crashing boards. Of course Polley has the career rebounding game of his life and completely plays in the lane for a game right before blowing out his ACL. [/QUOTE]
