Kevin Ollie UCONN Huskies Lob Play by Dana Beszczynski

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.

Kevin Ollie UCONN Huskies Lob Play by Dana Beszczynski

The Kevin Ollie UCONN Huskies Lob Play was the opening set of last nights game between the Washington Huskies and Texas Longhorns which was played in Shanghai, China at the Mercedes Benz Arena.

The game marked the beginning of the Shaka Smart era at Texas. Smart has previously coached from 2009-20015 at VCU compiling an overall record of 163-56 and included in that impressive record was a trip to the Final 4. Texas is hoping for big things under Smart not only this year, but in the years to come.

Washington is coached by Lorenzo Romar entering his 14th season at the helm with a record of 270-159. The last few years have been down ones for the Huskies and Romar has a young team this year entering the PAC 12 season, but it promises to be exciting.

The Kevin Ollie UCONN Huskies Lob Play started in a “Stack” low with the wings sprinting out to the wings and the posts men flashing high to the elbow. The play was designed hoping the 5 man’s defender would overplay the flash enabling in this case Marquese Chriss to release to the ring for the lob pass from Andrew Andrews the Washington PG.

The pass came up short, but it was an exciting way to start the game and a play which you can use to surprise your opponents at the start of a game!

Kevin Ollie, who played for Larry Brown in the NBA with the Philadephia 76er’s is one of the up and coming coaches that has already won a national championship.  His team runs a great variety of NBA sets that can help your team.
