Another "tweak" coming from Cal??

Did you miss the word "trap"? Don't think that quote said Rupp invented the 1-3-1, it was talking about the trapping with it. If that is incorrect then someone should edit his Wiki page as it also states that Coach Rupp was one of the first coaches to use trapping with it.
Well let me re-phrase that. Use playing dangling over his head to drive more, shoot it in the lane more. Is that better ?? You can ask / beg these kids until you are blue in the face, start using less minutes / more pine as a motivation to get your point across seems to work pretty damn well.
She's been on Red Eye a lot over the years. There are some better GIFs than that one too. She fits in perfectly with that show. Very free about displaying her assets. Funny too.
Good observation..... It seems that Andrew just stands at the top of the Key... Passes the ball and gets it back.. He needs to drive more and look to score more at the goal.. He's got so many players to pass to, that he doesn't look to score and I can see that... He is getting more assist this year and he was looking to do that.... The players need to look for Andrew more too... They get the ball and it doesn't come back out, unless it's by Johnson... The rest will shoot regardless and usually have to get the rebound to finish it off... Andrew is walking it up the floor, instead of running it up the floor and getting his team in an up tempo on the offensive end, as well as they do it on the defensive end....
One common thing Cal has brought up off and on the last two years is his frustration at certain players not going hard all the time. That one thing really gets him. He mentions it a lot in one way or another. Basically saying he wants all his players competing at the highest level. If not, sit down.
Defense and playing harder than your opponent are his two pet peeves. He doesn't seem to say a whole lot compared to those two things.

Glad to see a few Red Eye watchers here. Am always worried they'll pull the show given it's horrid time-slot. Thank God for DVR.
Maybe setting more screens so they can come off the screens with a nice open look. From there they could shoot or drive depending upon what the defense give them. Just a wild ass guess though.
It's actually a "stratified TRANSITIONAL hyperbolic paraboloid"...Rupp taught geometry and that's what he called his 1-3-1 zone!
We know Cal said during this off period with no classes he was going to focus on offense so my guess is some sort of adjustment there. If he can get the O going half as good as the D this team will be scary. Not that they aren't already. Just ask UCLA.
I really hope you guys are right about this being a tweak of the guards and not a TWERK of them instead.
I have no problem with him getting animated on the sideline at times, but if he twerked the guards while they're sitting on the bench I think I'd have to avert my eyes.

I hope the Poythress angle comes true next year. Would absolutely love to have him back.Originally posted by LDaniel7:
Good job on the photo shop.
It was indeed,, it probably helped the Runts win a couple of games late in the year. On a seperate note,this years team is sort of the anti-Runts but the season is taking on the same feel as that one did.As it was in that year you just don't want this bunch to lose because they are unique and fun to watch.Both teams made/make you proud to be a Cat fan.
Kentucky has the personnel to become a great offensive team. Lyles, Aaron, Tyler, Devon, Karl, Andrew, Dakari - all of them are extremely gifted individual players. The only think possibly holding this group back will be the tedious grind of the SEC schedule. I don't know if they'll be challenged enough facing 21 straight games against lackluster talent.

i think he taught them to secure the 3 pt streak a lot earlier in games from now on instead of waiting until the last three minutes.
It wasn't Joe Hall that sold Coach Rupp on the 1-3-1, it was Harry Lancaster. Lancaster had learned it at a coaching clinic from Chuck Noe, and had been teaching the freshman team this defense since the fall of 1963. Further, Rupp didn't just start playing it in the 1965-66 season. In fact, Kentucky also played the 1-3-1 quite a bit in both the 1963-64 and 1964-65 seasons.
Booker and Ulis basically said the tweak was Cal telling the guards to attack the rim more + stop flopping hoping for a call.
Not exactly eye-opening lol.
