Just horrific that’s what led to the comeback he kept over committing and then Harrar rolled to the basket and everyone else had to rotate leaving them wide open from 3 I don’t understand our coaching of big men Myles used to do this and was always caught out of position in the pick and roll

PSU is a great pick and roll team. They did this to a lot of teams. Glad Harrar is gone.

We changed our pick and roll defense a few games ago after we got torched by Michigan’s PnR game. Previously, our strategy was for the guard to go over the pick, but that was resulting in a lot of opposing players getting free looks into the lane.

But I noticed a few games ago, the strategy changed, and now our center was hedging and doubling on the screen. It worked against Indiana, and it worked for for first 30 minutes today.
