Grinnell System
If you watched ESPN today, you probably heard about Jack Taylor from Grinnell who scored over 100 points for the 2nd time in his career. Regardless of your thoughts of the Grinnell system, it is still an amazing. With that in mind, I thought it be fitting to provide some resources on this system. I may have already done this so I apologize if that is the case.
I also thought it would be fitting to include some game film to kind of put this in to perspective as well. Sometimes see the system in action can help.
