Free Chapter: The Kansas High-Low

What's Inside

The High-Low Chapter

Bill Self's Multiple Option Offense at Kansas looks complicated on tape. It isn't. It's a series of options off the same initial action — and the high-low entry is the one that's launched dozens of pros and a national championship.

The sample chapter walks through the entry, the read, and the counter — what happens when the post defender plays in front, when he plays behind, and when the defense tries to switch. Three reads. That's the whole chapter.

In the Sample

• The high-low entry diagrammed step-by-step
• The three primary reads and how to coach the decision
• What to do when the defense fronts the post
• How Coach Self counters a switch (and why most teams don't)
• Two drills to install the high-low in a single practice

If you have a skilled big who can pass from the elbow or the high post, you can run this. It's not a system that requires McDonald's All-Americans — it just requires patience and a good entry passer.
