JJ's FT Shooting Form

The problem is, who do you sub for him late in games? Kiyan isn’t much better.

Kiyan is four games into his college career. JJ has started 84 games. You start Kiyan. You end the game with Kiyan. He'll come around.

JJ looks like he's from an alien planet and trying to shoot a free throw for the first time without any training.
 
Now time for a serious question. What is worse? Current football quarterback situation or JJ's foul shooting. Lol. 🫣

Amazingly I go for foul shooting
 
The odd thing about Starling's first free throw airball (I can't believe I have to specify which of the airballs I'm referring to) is that it wasn't short the way most airballs are, it was like a foot to the right of the basket. That is very unusual. Usually misses are long or short, but at this level (college/NBA) they're very rarely left or right.

QB situation by far. At least JJ is attending SU on a basketball scholarship. He's not a soccer player that we repurposed out of desperation.

Outside of scholarship status, evaluate from performance perspective

Two air balled foul shots versus a lacrosse quarterback that at least threw a touchdown last game and no pick 6

JJ Starling is an exponentially better basketball player than any QB on SU's roster minus Steve Angeli.
 
Not in all years of doing this and all the research and experience I’ve had with this does it show it will help. Hard part is you need a fresh start and what I mean by that is a very very long break from it. However, the kid works his butt off everyday in the gym trying to get better and work himself out of it, but that’s not how you can approach this.
Is this like in A Beautiful Mind when Russell Crowe is like "All I have to do is apply my mind" and the old advisor guy is like "There's no theorum, no proof. You can't reason your way out of this?"
 
Crazy thought - not sure if it was mentiined
