Happy Holidays everyone. As always, we try to only share the relevant and interesting, so here is an in-depth article on how the University of Vermont men's basketball coaching staff breaks down video and uses it for specific opponent game preparation. Most university programs do this in a similar way.
Some of the key thoughts:
- Digestible individualized instructions for each player and the team is the goal
- Even with technology it takes considerable time to prepare a scout
- Most programs outside of D1 and some top level D2/D3/NAIA don't have the resources to have 3-4 assistants and video coordinators to help with the process so it all falls on the 1 or 2 full-time coaches
- “You have to walk that line with how much information you give them, how much they’ll digest,” Becker said. “You don’t want them over-thinking.”
- No matter how much time we put in as coaches, the key is to get your players to buy in to its value
