UL did fine against that 1-3-1, hit some outside shots, and evaporated like the dew...Tennessee has the athletes to play man all game, we won't see a half court zone defense from them...

Yes. If they play us 1-3-1 that is a gift. They will not.

Texas state switched to a 1-3-1 with their smallest player(Harrell)on the floor playing under the basket and it gave us fits…

That is where the PG is supposed to play on the 1-3-1

….Years back as the head basketball coach at St Louis HS, we played !~3~1…..always thought the key was anticipation of the pass to the man that you would cover…..that made a fake pass in the opposite direction and a quick pass in the real direction the hardest to cover……all but one kid played football, and the back one running toward the corner shooter could be scary as he was a future UL very tough footballer…….Delbert Deville!

Your best athlete should run the baseline in a 1-3-1, or someone you're trying to hide from foul trouble...Back in the Shipley Days, the 1-3-1 was a staple...

Usually the fastest but also the smallest because they have to cover the baseline side to side. 1-3-1 is a very good trapping defense so you want as much length at the top and sides as possible and usually a big to play the middle of the 3 to clog passing lanes.

I wasn't a PG in HS, but I played the back when we went to 1-3-1. It's a tough cover, for sure!

My point was it gave us fits. Tennessee fastest player is not a midget
