Early on in the year, before more injuries came down the pike, they were shooting even worse than they were with a reduced roster.

Ducharme’s absence hurt but he was only 32 pct from 3 in 24-25.

So it’s fair to say that maybe the injuries prevented that offense from ever having a chance to be showcased but there still was some time with which they had most of their guys and there wasn’t anything impressive about their offensive sets or identity in those early games. They simply played hard and had to lean on their top 3 guys to do the heavy lifting.

A couple other nuggets includes the fact that a 39 pct shooter  really struggled this year in Coyle despite an improved team around him. There was some struggles getting him good looks and just some confidence issues too.

Lastly  while Kevair Kennedy is a really talented freshman for the MAAC level he’s a level below Doty right now. Doty was the best player in that conference and showed as much all year. He’s in the mold of a Dalton Knecht ( not there or necessarily likely to reach that level) and simply is better than anyone else in the conference or at peer level schools and the impact of that was easy to see.
