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...

I agree with Chuck. When the ball is in your area it is primary!. You rotate across strong ide because the play is most likely going there. The play may go to the post so if ball is out a ways rotate to ref the post but the reason you are there is because that's where the ball is coming
