The Beavs had two more inbounding violations on Sunday against Cal. I know that OSU has several inbounds plays that may take some time to develop, but doesn't the inbounder have to check to the safety option at the four seconds count and get the ball inbounds? Giving the ball away because we can't inbound the ball is extremely deflating.
Are we not cutting to the ball quickly enough? Do we have the wrong people/passers inbounding the ball? It seems like our guards are sometimes too passive when we are being pressed and they need to create some more separation to receive an inbounds pass. Against UCLA in the second quarter, an OSU guard went away from the inbounder towards the corner of the court and made the inbounds pass easier for the Bruins defender to steal. Her defender stole the ball and passed to her teammate for a layup.
Am I overreacting or have others noticed that OSU players need to help out the inbounder by cutting more quickly and/or bodying up more aggressively in order to provide the passer with a clearer passing option?
