State gets good shots against defenses that hedge ball screens. It does not get good shots against defenses that do almost anything else. Shake action for 3. Capel and Forbes both stuck with this ball screen coverage.

Watching some DJ Lagway tape and I've come to really like how Florida managed him. 10 YPA partially a product of play calling. A lot of 6 and 7-man protections with simple yankee variations off play action. Even incorporated some double moves from the over route. Building off of previous tape.

State is a fascinating case study in roster building. I'm not sure I've seen a team that successfully managed to be good at 0 total things.

What is a Kevin Keatts Four? I went into the vault a bit and went through Keatts' 4s during his time at State, looked at how they're used, discussed Diarra's uniqueness, and looked ahead to the next portal class. www.trinityroadtimes.com/post/what-is...

Kind of just out of things to say about the MBB team. Needs to upgrade talent. That's a product of NIL, eval, development, etc. It all matters. State missed on a lot of it this year. That doesn't inform results like tonight, but it is the general issue with this team.

One of Wes Moore's go-to sets. Basic 4-5 horns look with James in the weaker corner. 1-4 pick and roll. Puts a ton of pressure on the weak side tag.

Mike James had a role to play in Raleigh, but his injury forced State to pivot and it's failed to do so well. What was James' role supposed to be? I dissected it in this video for TRT premium subscribers. You can join premium for free for 7 days! www.trinityroadtimes.com/post/premium...

This is the possession you want more of if you're State. Zipper cut well defended from Aziaha. Hand up on the closeout. Great effort to blow up the DHO from Rivers. Good stunt and soft close on a bad shooter from Hayes. Rivers' length allows her to ice the screen and then recover

Wes Moore spamming 77 pick and roll against the 2-3, scored 7 points on 3 possessions. Gonna cut that up later. One of my favorite actions he runs against the 2-3.
