This pressure defense is modeled after the Run and Stun that Ex-Cleveland State coach Kevin Mackey used to take his Vikings to the sweet sixteen in 1986. It uses a ten or more players to wear down their opponents and keep their team fresh. This Full Court Pressure Defense has been one of the best over the last three years of college basketball.

Looking to win more games with a tougher defense?
Yes, I have a “defensive” mindset lately.
The word “obsessed” seems a bit strong, but whatever…
Like you, I’m just blissfully aware that a “shut down” defense creates WAY more opportunities for my offense.
With the season bearing down on us, I wanted to make sure you had all the resources you need to revamp your defense before the season starts if you have to.
And here’s a guy I listen to when I’m looking to make some improvements…
I see him this way…
“Aggressive” and “Fast-Paced” are some of the terms you hear to describe Frank Martin’s defense at South Carolina.
(Coach Martin was voted 2017 Jim Phelan National Coach of the Year for a reason.)
Now I have released a playbook that corrals everything he does...
What will you learn?
Of course, that’s just a partial description…
It’s tough to sum up a full-on 100+ playbook covering all areas.
I guess, like everything else Coach Martin does, this one is over the top.
Well, I’ll do my best to boil it down for you…
The playbook is broken up like this:
Defense Set up
Post Defense
Open Court Situations
Ball Screen Coverage
Defending Screens
Transition Defense
If you KNOW you need to shore up your defense, this is how to do it.
Who doesn’t want to be known for having a “smothering” defense? It frustrates your opponent and creates a flood of offensive opportunities.
I love this style of play…and I suspect you will, as well.

In 1994, Coach Nolan Richardson and the Arkansas Razorbacks put the world of college basketball through Hell. They would be on you for 40 Minutes, 94 Feet, constantly…. Most teams would say that is “40 Minutes of Hell”. It’s how they played basketball. They never got the elite basketball recruit at Arkansas. Anyone can play this style of defense if they sell their players on it. Oliver Miller wasn’t a big time recruit and he got drafted in the first round and played with the NBA Phoenix Suns.
Pressure, Pressure, Pressure….. They were on you for 40 minutes. Anyone can play defense, you don’t have to have shooting skills to play defense. You can’t be a coward to play defense. It’s all about mental toughness. Can your team play at this frezny rate? Are you will to sell out and play this system of basketball that the players rave about, but don’t want to condition for?
You are going to have your team, scraping, running, shooting, and diving for loose balls. It’s the most natural way to play the game of basketball. You will get your teams to attack, attack, attack. It’s going to be Hell for the other team.
The drills, all the conditioning, and the running….. your team will be ready for the season. It’s a mental game and the reward is winning a championship at the end.
It’s non-stop action, running up and down.. running up and down. Pressing and running. Your team can learn this Full Court Pressing System.
This system helped Coach Richardson to win the NJCAA National Championship at Western College in Synder, Texas. That season helped him get the job at the University of Tulsa. He won big at the University of Tulsa and in 1985, the University of Arkansas offered him the Head Men’s Basketball Coaching Position with them.
It’s a style of play that you can win with…

Are you looking past the simple solution for your team?
Hi Coach,
We’re all guilty of over complicating things from time to time…
I know I am.
Call it “shiny object syndrome” if you want…
As coaches, we should be striving to make things simpler, not more complex.
Just because some coach who’s on a winning streak puts out a new way to do things, do NOT mean we should all rush out and do it.
Am I right?
Let me give you an example.
The Open Post is a great offense. It’s used at nearly every level of the game.
But a lot of coaches I talk to are looking past it for some other solution…
The one the “cool kids” are using.
Let’s slow down for a second and look at this again.
Here are 5 reasons why you should consider the Open Post if you don’t use it already…(and if you do, how you can use it in more situations)
If you have a small (but quick) team, the Open Post should be your best friend. You’ll need to exploit your opponents weaknesses in order to win.
You can turn your undersized players into an advantage, by removing the the low post threats and capitalizing on your perimeter play.
Directly related to the above: If you have good penetrators and outside shooters (or can develop them) this becomes a no-brainer
When you need to, you can slow the games down and take one advantage away from a bigger, more athletic team. Delay, delay, delay.
It’s a breeze to learn and teach for younger players who haven’t reached a certain level of sophistication or maturity yet.
All of this sounds like solid reasoning for the Open Post to be used a TON in high school or youth sports.
I hope you agree.
If so--and you’ve read this far--I have a surprise for you!
I’ve got the “primer” on the Open Post in a brand new playbook for you...based on the guy who I think “owns” the open post.
West Virginia Head Coach Bob Huggins.
I’ve put together 125 pages of breakdowns and game situations for you!
It looks like this:
Open Post breakdown
Game analysis for Kansas (a BIG part of this playbook)
Oklahoma
Texas Tech (yup!)
And an added section on the WV defense.
After reading through this playbook, I hope you’ll see this option for what it is. A simple, easy-to-implement solution for high school and youth teams.
Let’s NOT over complicate things…

West Virginia Offensive/Defensive Playbook
Run this famous VCU / Texas Pressing System with a great uptempo offense today!
While running an uptempo offense, VCU Shaka Smart (2009-15), posted an overall record of 163-56 (.744) and guided the Rams to five NCAA Tournament appearances. The 163 wins tied him for the second-highest number of total victories during the first six years of a head coaching career in NCAA history. VCU and Duke are the only two programs in the country to have posted at least 26 wins in each of the past six seasons. This was all done while running his famous VCU / Texas Pressing System.
After watching Coach Smart’s teams play I wanted to learn how to run his defense and play like those VCU teams. Once I started researching VCU / Texas Pressing system, I found it was more than just pressing it was a style a play that requires enthusiasm, effort, grit, and hard work. The VCU / Texas Pressing system is a complete system of play that includes not only pressing but just as important a fast tempo offense that spreads out the defense and allows you to attack lanes and kick out for 3’s. For our VCU / Texas system, I combined Coach Smart’s presses with Billy Donovan’s spread pick and roll offense and broke it down to a simple uptemp offense that gives high school players structure but at the same time allows for freedom to make plays. Our motto is “Players make plays, plays do not make players.”
In this playbook you will find our spread pick and roll offense with each of its three entry’s, multiple set plays, and baseline/sideline plays. Also included is our zone offenses that incorporate the pick and roll to attack the defense along with zone set plays. For defense you will find all three presses we use as well as the roll for each player in each defense. Lastly you will find individual and team drills to properly implement the VCU / Texas Press.
