Fran O`Hanlon Through the Years Playbook

by Dom Amoroso

Description

If you ever have a chance to go on Synergy and binge-watch any team in college basketball for offensive research purposes, I highly recommend digging through the Lafayette Leopards and their head coach Fran O'Hanlon. For nearly 30 years, the Leopards under the tutelage of O'Hanlon, ran offenses well ahead of their time. Having been a product of both playing and coaching overseas, O'Hanlon's offenses were always built on strong passing and cutting games and featured a ton of great actions for shooters. This book contains 71 sets total, ranging from his base offense to different off-screen actions and post-ups, as well as his stapled Iverson cut series. In terms of zone offense, the Leopards primarily relied on player movement during his tenure, often matching a front and playing out of it. There are some great sideline and baseline out-of-bounds sets in here as well that can instantly be applied to your team, or kept in your back pocket for late-game situations.
