Both of those numbers are the highest we’ve seen in forever. It’s making a MASSIVE difference and our one outlier was the reason for our only league loss so far. Pryor an amazing 35-38 the past three games. Edited January 22 by Dave_Glaser 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USFBulls12 Posted January 22 Group: Member Topic Count: 63 Content Count: 3,700 Reputation: 930 Days Won: 7 Joined: 03/17/2012 Share Posted January 22 FTs have been this program's problem for years. If they ever had a team that shot a good free throw percentage, we'd be a much more successful program. This is a step in the right direction.

I mentioned that we were recruiting guys who can shoot. I mentioned how many close losses we had last year and how poorly we shot from the FT line. And that alone was going to make a difference. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's amazing what a thin line there is between winning and losing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been counting Pryor's free throw times lately, and I watched the referees' counts closely on all his FT attempts today. Even though it seems like he's close to a 10 second violation, he's pretty consistently around 7 seconds, so he actually has 2 seconds to spare. Whatever works for him I hope he keeps doing it!
