We suck shooting fts

The last 2 games we haven't gotten to the free throw line as often while our opponents have lived there. Auburn was 18-21. They shot over twice as many and still missed half as many as we did.
 
We have only 1 Senior. Is there gonna be another clear out? Rinse and repeat and same results.

We have 1 senior and 1 grad transfer so we actually have 2 openings, but both of those are filled. The assumption had been that AJ would go pro, and history says we lose at least another guy, but I'm not sure who is left on our recruiting board.
 
We need a dedicated free throw shooting coach. Someone that had an 85% average as a layer. BJ Mackie for example. One on one sessions. It would have to help.

Frank McGuire Ass. Buck Freeman was the force behind McGuire. He knew how to teach these kids to shot. Lost art these days......

In all fairness, when you shoot 33% from the line, it doesn't much matter if you go to the stripe 9 times or 21 times. It's only a 4 point difference.
