Here's a nice article that showed up in the Kansas City Star a few days ago. Fellow Big 12 coaches such as Shaka Smart, Bruce Weber, Bob Huggins, and others discuss why Coach Bill Self and the Kansas Jayhawks always play such great defense. I linked to it over at Hoops U. so that I could highlight the takeaways from the opposing coaches.
It's a quick read, but you will get a few smart takes for playing great defense such as:
- Limit layups
- Detail-oriented
- Attitude of competitiveness
- Fundamentally sound
P.S. If you're a fan of Coach Self, make sure you check out our selection of
Bill Self videos at the Hoops U. Store.
P.P.S. If you need more help in building and improving your defense, check out the
Man Defense section at The U. If you're a member of the Hoops U. Academy, you'll get even more in-depth knowledge of
Man-to-Man Defense here.
Enjoy .... and
we'll see you soon!!
