Best Blob Zone Plays versus a 2-3 Zone

Written by Coach Peterman

I have coached at the NCAA Division 2 (Southwestern Oklahoma State University), NAIA (USAO), and JUCO Levels (Blinn College and Carl Albert State College) as well as high school. I just felt that fellow coaches especially young coaches need to constantly work on their “game”. Just like the basketball players that we coach. We as coaches need to improve ourselves. That is my story and why I do this blog.

Best Blob Zone Plays versus a 2-3 Zone

Here are some of the best NCAA Blob Zone Plays versus a 2-3 zone. You will see St. Bonaventure who run the “Middle Screen In” play. This is one of the NCAA Division 1 Blob Zone Plays that I really love. I like the shot in the lane that the middle screen gives you.

Kevin Stallings of Vanderbilt uses the Baseline Rip Play which is one of the blob zone plays that is quite effective. Sean Miller of Arizona runs the Baseline Rip Counter play that is quite effective in the library of zone blob plays. Bob McKillop of Davidson runs the most mis-direction play of the zone blob plays that I have seen in this youtube clip. The also run a “skip” play that is highly effective if you have a good three point shooter versus a zone.

Fred Hoiberg of Iowa State runs the “middle bump” play which has a lot of action. Bob Hoffman of Mercer University runs “Low Stack” as one of his zone blob plays and it is a great shot in the lane. I have watched Coach Hoffman for over 20 years and I believe that he is the master of the set plays. He is one that you should watch whenever they are on tv.

Brian Gregory of Georgia Tech runs the “stack lob” which is one of Tom Izzo’s favorite zone set plays. You are going to see some of the best NCAA Division 1 Blob Zone Plays in this youtube clip. If you can’t find something that you love with all these zone blob plays then there is something wrong.

I want to put out a HUGE “Thank You” to Zak Boisvert for donating this youtube clip and diagrams. Zak Boisvert was one of my first contibutors and the first guy to make it to the NCAA Division 1 level. He is a perfect example of how hard work with get you where you want to go.
