there's no LDB in NCAAM

Didn't know that. Do NCAAW and thought they were the same. Always learning something new. Thanks.

I realize that the defender stepping up is the primary defender, but I don't think this should matter in this situation. Am I supposed to keep track of who is guarding who at all time??

Are you saying anybody who is in the RA should be a secondary defender? I'm just trying to figure out a line of delineation of when a primary defender becomes a secondary defender on the man he is guarding. If the defensive coach asks me why that wasn't the primary defender, I would not have a legitimate answer for him.

Hmmm...now I am wondering: If the defender leaves his man to go help out somewhere else, is he still a "primary" defender on the guy he left?

Over-thinking it???

I think he is a secondary defender. When he moves over to double team the player on the low block, then comes back he is a secondary defender in my opinion. Good call, good teamwork by crew.

Thing is I don't know when a primary defender becomes a secondary defender or vice versa. I would like to say that any player that starts inside the RA and tries to establish position outside the RA in order to draw a charge should be considered a secondary defender. Obviously there is some common sense involved, but perhaps there should be a distance requirement for maintaining primary defender status in relation to RA plays.

As Justice Potter Stewart says, "I know a secondary defender when I see one."

Maybe I've misunderstood that rule. But just how big is the LDB in NCAAW? The drive started from the free throw line. So assuming that this were NCAAW and that the defender hadn't been moving forward at the time of contact and that whatever interesting stuff about secondary primary defenders didn't apply. Would this not be a block in NCAAW? I thought it went out to the second free throw space.

It does. I didn't go back and look at the play / drive when responding to the question.
