“_____Ball” is what _____ ’s coaching style is called. It is similar to Paul Westhead’s style at Loyola Marymount; Jerry Tarkanian’s style at UNLV; Nolan Richardson’s style at Arkansas; and Dave Arceneaux’s style at Grinnell. This means that _____ presses full-court, runs the fast break at every opportunity, tries to get a shot off within 10 seconds of a possession, shoots a couple dozen three-point shots per game, and tries to make another dozen layups per game. _____ averages close to 80 possessions per game. The _____s shoot a high percentage from the field, from behind the three-point line, and at the foul line. They keep the opposition from getting a lot of easy shots, although they occasionally give up easy baskets when their press is broken. When they miss from the field, they retrieve more than 1⁄3 of those missed shots. They also have a fat turnover margin in their favor and are among the top three out of 362 teams in steals per game.
