ND has the worst close-outs on defense in CB. Not an exaggeration. Inexcusably poor.

Level 1
End of game and Shrews draws up a play where they inbound the ball to Towt?
WTF. Get the ball to your scorers or ball handlers.
-
Level 2
The play was for him to hand it to Haralson coming off a screen. Towt tried forcing it to him. More
importantly, Shrews called a timeout before that when we were back into Chris Thomas 2004 mode with Haralson dribbling back and forth above the arc, waiting to fire an off-balance three with a defender draped over him.

Level 3
He threw a 3-foot, 40 MPH pass to Shrews that bounced off his face
Get the ball in to your playmakers and/or ball handlers. Not to a guy that dents the backboard when he shoots free throws. Love that Towt is tough, plays hard and rebounds like a madman but he has no business being involved in that play.

Level 4
Towt is a good passer. He screwed up.
After Haralson was stymied before the timeout, Towt was going to hand it to Haralson, and then screen for him to open up Haralson for a drive.
