Last call for questions.

You might ask him about the Sun Belt having four teams in the top 100 NET rankings and his thoughts on the quality of the league and what it would take for the Belt to get 2 bids.

Chaunce Jenkins

53% is 36th in the country? There are some great shooters out there then! Congratulations to Jenkins.

The first 35 are all 3 for 4. Seriously, did not know that. I know he likes to drive but maybe he should taking some more threes.

He's 10-19 from 3. Is that a big enough sample to draw any conclusions?

No stats have enough of a sample to be all that worthwhile, but I think its pretty clear that Jenkins is a pretty good shooter. Seeing that he is such a dangerous threat driving...and him hitting mid range shots, the 3 point is an added benefit.

ODU can be a pretty decent 3-point shooting team as long as the top 4-5 guys are doing most of the shooting from there. Long has really improved in that area thus far. Hope it continues for him.

Some of the takes here are so odd. ODU is the 221st best team in the nation for 3pt% and tied for 347th (Third worst in the nation) for 3pt FG/Game.

So the women play 9-1 NSU today and it definitely said ESPN + but nowhere to be found.

Did you notice in the W & M game Jones pulled Baker in the 2nd half after he had been in about 1 minute because his man scored on a layup. Matador defense from Baker but Jones didn’t hesitate to take him out nor did he put him back in. It may have been the right move but we have all seen it happen every year. I like this team but don’t expect it to shoot the three well. Jones said he was going to work Baker into the lineup more but whose minutes has he taken? It looks like Charles Smith,another three point threat. I hope I am wrong but it seems to me we will sink or swim with pounding the paint and shooting mid range jumpers.

I would love the opportunity to return:

1. Essein
2. Jenkinks
3. Baker
4. Long
5. Williams/Fields

Bench:

Wade
Stines
Williams/Fields
Smith
Transfer that can score

Baker has been playing about 10 mins a game. Hopefully he keep improving and that goes up.

Yes, hopefully Baker’s minutes continue to rise.

Thus far it seems like you might be correct. Unless he was injured, ill, or something else other than the coach that prevented him from playing - Smith didn't get into the game tonight against Garner Webb.
