Well, Josh, other than the basic *first time on the court* elementary basketball player who was told to guard her/his opponent and not allow them the ball, have you ever seen a basketball player staring at an opponent with no regard for where the ball is ?
And writing that you have seen coaches teaching that tactic in a college setting, several or many times, and expecting anyone here to take that as truth, is quite a leap of faith.
