We have never been a good defensive rebounding team in the KenPom era. Never rebounding more than 69.6 percent of our opponents misses.
Our best rebounding team was two years ago and we were the last team in.
2012 and 2013 we rebounded just 62% and 65% of our opponents misses (which were two of our worst rebounding teams the past 20 years) and we went a combined 64-13.
What is key for us is forcing a lot of turnovers. Those two teams in 2012 and 2013 were top 25 in turnover %.
Also the last two years we were sub 200 in FG%. That needs to change.
I’ve seen a lot of posts saying rebounding is a key. It is not. We will be a bad rebounding team. We need to be better in other areas.
