Innovative Hoops - Rhodes is running 'The System'
As a D3 guy myself, I find 'The System' to be very interesting.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grinnell_System

The Grinnell coach designed this as fun way to play at a lower level and one of his assistants in now the Rhodes HC.

Quote:So this became the year. DeGeorge invited the players to his house before the season began and informed them of the change. They would play three groups of five players, swapping them in and out every 30 seconds. They would press like (strategic) maniacs. The would only shoot layups or 3s. They would do this, even though it would be discouraging at times, and even though the game would sometimes look like a layup drill for the other team.

Basically it is a sell out press with crazy gunning and hockey style subs.

I've always wanted to see this at the D1 level, but if you are in town, this is something worth watching.

Rhodes is currently below .500 (5-7) right now, but the SAA is really tight, so the autobid (http://www.d3hoops.com/interactive/faq/n...#automatic) is still in play.

Could you imagine a team with Memphis level talent playing this?
