Message: [QUOTE="Chin Diesel, post: 3821723, member: 34"] Help defense falls under coaching and coaching them not to help. That was the strategy against St. John's. Each player needed to be "tougher" and "gut it out" guarding his man. Helping on those drives would have left the help defender's player open for a 3. As far as coaching this team?? Generally speaking, good starts to games. UConn is competitive from the opening tap. Horrible substitutions in first half to kill momentum and have several good leads chopped down. A bit of favoritism with quick hooks vice letting them play through. Adams and Martin can be atrocious and still play whereas Sanogo had the hook up until Creighton where he go to play through mistakes. [/QUOTE]
