Fran Fraschilla spent 30 years on the sidelines as a college basketball coach before joining ESPN this season as an broadcast analyst. He guided both Manhattan (1993, 1995) and St. John's (1998) to the NCAA Tournament in his nine seasons as a Division I head coach, leaving New Mexico following the end of the 2001-02 season. This season, he breaks down several offense and defensive strategies for ESPN.com as part of his Hoops 101 weekly feature. If you have any questions after reading Hoops 101 or have a question about a specific term or scheme, send them our way and we'll give them to Coach Fraschilla, who will answer a few in his weekly Hoops 101 feature.
