I have been a "U" for 15 years. I love being right in the middle of the game. I enjoy communicating with the players and "getting to know them and them me". I feel that a good U must control the "temperment" of the game. The U also helps control the flow of the game the slower he is the slower the game progresses.

I am the chief "U" for our HS association and have finally gotten it into the others heads that the hash is not a wall for the U position go where your 8 or 9 players are and control any situations. If you have been communicating with them they are used to your voice and pay attention. Also, you are closer to the ball and can spot it with a more normal flow.

I have run R during two varsity games and many subvarsity games, not my cup of tea.
