 Chad's FT Shooting
First, I am glad that we have Chad and have enjoyed watching him make progress over the first 8 games. However, he has got to improve his FT shooting. How can ANY college basketball player be shooting 27.3% (6-22) from the FT line? I mean, that SUX and is unacceptable for a middle-school player.
As a team, we are shooting 61.0% from the line. Take out Chad's stats and the pct rises to a more tolerable 65.6%. (Well, not that tolerable, but takes us from #328 to #268.)
Son, get in the gym and MAKE 100 FTs everyday.
C'MON MAN!

Against ole Miss I seem to recollect that he missed his first 2 free throws but then he made all the rest. With more game experience he should do fine.

You have got to make them early, because those are most likely the 1&1s. It swings a game 4 points or so if your team can't hit them.

RE: Chad's FT Shooting
I swear I could hit 27 out of a hundred with my eyes shut. Gotta be a mental thing. His form actually looked better vs. Ole Miss. Less herky-jerky. And he did go 2 for 2 on one trip to the line, so there's that.
