5-Out ATO
I’ve always loved the idea of scripting the first few possessions of a game.
Take that concept to the next level by integrating false motion and pace to force the defense out of place early (Watch the clip below, and you’ll see Hoosiers literally running into each other before anything of significance happens.)
At the :06 mark, you’ll see Nebraska back in traditional 5-Out alignment. After a DHO by the 5, the weakside corner backscreens for the post (Frame 1). If the 5 doesn’t score it, the 3 and 4 set an inverted stagger screen for 2 (Frame 2).
