Do you run any particular sets, or do you have high offensive freedom?

Wildcat18 wrote:Thanks for the replies! Reason I asked the follow-up question is that I’ve got 2 freshman who desire “starter’s minutes”. Given that I’m in a “rebuilding” year (7 of the 10 guys in my rotation are freshman or sophomores), I’m giving most guys about 20 minutes a game or so and trying to ride whoever’s hot that night. Only guy on the roster who’s playing 30+ minutes a game most nights is the junior SG masquerading as the PG because he’s got the highest passing rate on the team with 3.
Thanks! What I've been doing lately (up until I ran into a bug regarding technical fouls I mentioned in another thread) has been running Motion about 25% of the time and offensive freedom the rest. Kind of wish we had the option to have a 4-out 1-in motion offense as well as the 3-out 2-in.
And yea, I've been recruiting bigs who are capable of shooting from the outside. They may not be Omari "lead the 2018 championship team in 3P%" Spellman from beyond the arc, but they've been capable of making a few per game. Ironically, it's the 4s that I've had trouble getting guys who can shoot from outside lol

Unless you are at a privileged school where you expect most of your recruits to be one and done, or even 2 and done....75% offensive freedom is crazy! Offensive freedom favors teams that have very immediately (i.e, current v potential) talented players who won't be around long enough to learn a system. For the other 350 schools in DI though, it's best to teach your players your system, regardless of what sets you run at either end of the court, and run them! It's a matter of raw talent vs. experience, and a talented player that has experience AND skill is best of all!
