Hi Coach,
Summer is over and it's time to get ready for the upcoming season.
In my opinion, there is no better use of your time than studying the concepts found in the Princeton Offense and this is a great resource.
Mastering the Princeton Offense Bundle
This offense has seen a resurgence in recent years as college programs around the country have seen the benefits of its spacing, timing, and utilization of skilled players.
Here are just a few of the teams around the country that run elements of the Princeton Offense:
- Richmond University (A-10)
- Georgia Tech (ACC)
- Campbell (Big South)
- Loyola Chicago (Missouri Valley
- San Francisco (West Coast Conference)
- Drake (Missouri Valley)
- Loyola MD (Patriot)
Why is the Princeton Offense so effective?
(1) Gives Your Team Great Spacing
The Princeton System lifts the 5 man away from the rim to open up space for cuts and drives to the basket. In the Princeton the 5 man operates from the elbows and top of the key.
(2) Maximizes Your Personnel
The beauty of the Princeton Offense is that every perimeter player is truly “positionless”. Within this structure you can easily run PNR for some of your best players. Each action and perimeter position can be easily exchanged or interchanged depending on the matchup/personnel on the floor. You don’t need to waste time “getting the right spots” because each piece of the puzzle fits together on every single possession.
(3) The Perfect System for the Modern Game
The Princeton is built to take and make a lot of threes and run a lot of pick and rolls. The spacing of 4 perimeter players makes this the ideal offense for multiple floor spacers. Drive and kick opportunities are everywhere within this style of play. As offensive action from cuts to the paint, drives to the lane, or rolls to the rim (by the 5 man) forces the defense to collapse, your perimeter shooters will get wide open shots all night long.
There are 7 basic actions that make up the Princeton System, they are:
- Rod 1 (point series)
- Rod 2
- Reel
- Wedge
- Chest
- Chin
- 5-Out
These actions make up 90% of the Princeton system and are used interchangeably.
When you master these actions you can Master the Princeton Offense.
