Kevin Ollie may be a young Coach, but his tactical skills are outstanding.
Bringing a wealth of experience with him from his playing days both at UCONN and in the NBA, the Huskies sets are well designed with lots of movement and screening actions.
This 1-4 set play has three scoring options and is predicated on the ability of the players to "read" the defense.
Kevin Ollie is buidling the Huskies back into a contender again after the masterful job Jim Calhoun did in his tenure at the Connecticut school.
