The match was classic- Michigan, a freewheeling, high- scoring outfit, against the low- scoring but defensive minded Gophers. Minnesota, the defensive team, came out the victor. The Wol- verines at times during the sea- son suffered inevitable offensive lapses and their defense couldn't pull them through. The defense was cut to ribbons early against Ohio State, failed to keep the opposition's big men out of the middle in a loss to Purdue, and then finally yielded up 96 points to a Michigan State team that wasn't that good. ORR REMEMBERS the bitter losses he suffered last year, and he also remembers his biggest win-the 64-52 triumph here over Minnesota itself. For it was in that game that the Wolverines proved that they can also play defense if they want to. In that contest, the Michigan men harassed the Gophers all over the floor, and sparked by numerous steals by Henry Wilmore and Ernie Johnson, they beat Minne- sota at its own game by keeping the Gophers away from the bas- ket. So this year, Orr is changing his emphasis. Defense has been the first and foremost matter so far as the Wolverines warm up for the upcoming season. Currently, Orr is in the process of turning a Z S 4 are I ..I ...... ~ ~ d i evident at any Wolverine practice. Long hours have been spent in tedious drills as Orr attempts to make avoiding picks, defensive switching and opportunistic double- teaming second, nature to his play- ers. The Wolverines defensive intent this year is to keep the pressure on at all times, force mistakes on the part of the opposition, and then using their incredible team-wide quickness to capitalize on them, The hard work seems to be tak- ing effect, as in practice the de- fensive play of the Wolverines is better than it has ever been. "We're happy with our defense so far," says Orr. "It's improving every day, and at times we are playing excellently. Our only prob- lem now is to sustain the level of play, to play well consistently and not just in spurts." Orr has a great deal to work with. His four big men, Ken Brady, Campy Russell, John Lockard, and Ernie Johnson, all reported in ex- cellent shape and are very quick for their size, especially Russell and Johnson, whose fast hands! will mean a lot of steals this year for the Wolverines. i Kantnor for the starting berth. But Orr is not ignoring offense in his early season practice. The Wolverines are working out of two different offensive alignments, both of which are designed to make use of the special talents of the in- dividual Michigan players. In the Wolverine's "regular" of- fense, as Orr calls it, both guards stay basically on the outside, and the offense relies heavily on the cornermen and on Brady in a high post for scoring punch. With Russell at one forward, the Wolverines again have the kind of shooting from the corner which they missedawhen Wilmore moved to guard last season. Russell's drives also are effective in freeing Brady for passes for easy buckets in the middle. THE OTHER OFFENSE, termed the "stack," is more structured to use the abilities of Wilmore. In this attack, Wilmore goes inside, where his drives and moves are so effective, leaving only the other guard out on top by himself. Orr says that he intends to use both offenses a great deal, depend-! ing on the opponent and situation. group of very quick, very talented At the other guard spot, it is basketball players into a tena- Joe Johnson's defensive ability cious, cohesive defensive unit. which has him currently in the THEEMPHASSndefenseis lead over Terry Tyler and John AP Photo ALABAMA'S WILBUR JACKSON powers his way through a throng of would-be tacklers in last week's victory over Vanderbilt.
