I want to run a zone/press by the NT (we're at the start of conf play). Will zone IQs improve faster if I play just zone rather than zone/press?

Maybe against teams you massively outmatch. . .

No. If it does it will be very minimal. I have gone quite a few games in a row before without practicing a defense (while still running it) just to test this out actually and my guys all stayed at the same level.

it doesn't matter what you play, it matters what you PRACTICE. There is a chart somewhere in the forums that list the number of minutes to improve to (x) point. I have found the chart to be perfect. The only variable is the players WE....the higher the WE, the faster they learn (but not by very much). I thing the author of the chart was iguana, who has had the chart quoted many times in the forums during my years here.
