About This Play/Drill

Kansas ran this entry into offense against Texas at the 17:15 mark of the first half of their game on 1/19/13.

Kansas usually runs a similar set with a backdoor, flare screen (for PG), then the posts double down for the opposite wing who point guard replaced off the flare.

This "ear pull" was a variation on that set that Bill Self has had so much success with over the years at Kansas.

If the lob is not there, this set can easily flow into KU's high/low offense
