Yes, otherwise, why rotate? If your C can handle the ballhandler fine, then let him/her. If you rotate over, then as soon as the rotation is completed, your C gives up the play and rotates to Trail and you have on-ball coverage. I mean, that's exactly why you rotated, isn't it?

Hmmm...gotta disagree with these points. The primary competitive match-up is NOT necessarily the ball-handler and dribbler...it could be...it usually is...but not ALWAYS.
And no, I don't rotate so I can have on-ball coverage. I rotate because the post players went/are going/will be going across...I'm not sure why you would rotate just to get to on-ball coverage. Sure that happens - you rotate and end up picking up the ball right away, but that shouldn't be why you rotate.
Maybe this is just one of those differences between NCAAM and NCAAW mechanics...don't know enough about your side of it to say...

Wait. Stop the presses.
You rotate counter to where the ball is? If the ball's on your side as L but there's a good match up on the opposite block you will rotate?
Seriously, what the heck does the C get payed to do?
