does anyone have anything to say considering the press being used over and over to a lack of success...

How many wide open shots or lanes were open continually against good shooters?

Lineup?

Just wanting some of your EXPERT opinions on the above...

Define success.

What/how a press is being used can be for a variety of reasons, more times than not in college basketball it is used as nothing more than to try to control/set/dictate the tempo of the game.

Anderson uses his to speed the game up as a base.
A guy like JTIII uses his press to slow the game down as a base.

In other words you have a team like Oregon rushing to the line and snapping it fast to get the possessions during a game up or you have a team like Auburn rushing to the line and staring at the sidelines in an attempt to limit subs and have a game with an average amount of possessions, to put it in football terms since most here seem to understand that game better than they do basketball...
