Mostly a 5 out offense and will likely look a lot like what Oates is doing at Bama but with several variations and adjustments based on recognizing what the defense does to counter as well as rebounding the ball, particularly on nights where shots aren't falling as well as we want. Rebounding is a weak area of the 5 Out, obviously. Good shooters and passers with vision, and yeah, gotta have bigs with good hands, ready to catch the ball. It's gonna be fun! Curious how Pope will strategize against Oates while the two run very similar offense but as of now, gotta say Oats is ahead in terms of talent. Should be interesting when they match up.
Ya'll check this out and click the links to the different variations. Guy does a good job of breaking it all down, IMO.
