[QUOTE="rtbritt, post: 1356769, member: 4615"] Agree. Those star players typically aren't "bad" defenders in HS, though. They are usually bigger, faster, stronger and can out-athletic others and do some really good things on defense. However, this causes bad habits and they don't learn how to play D when it is an even playing field. They don't learn good position for help defense and things like that. The good news is, those things can be taught! [/QUOTE]
