Just comparing to past Syracuse teams, no way we even come near 7 guys who could shoot a three pointer, and we go 8 deep. Most teams had 4 and rarely a 5th. Food for thought.
The food for thought should be that 5 guys shouldn't be taking that many when your team is ranked second to last in the whole country from out there. Give Roberson a few shots from out there a game and we're probably dead last. I can see the other guys taking them but Roberson shouldn't even attempt one all year from out there.
This is the worst silver lining ever.Not to say its a good thing but we had 5 guys attempt atleast three three pointers last game, and I know mccullough and roberson could attempt 1-2 a game as well.

That we are this abysmal, and given the cascade effect our inablity to shoot has had on the offense as a whole, is collectively quite shocking.
Unfortunately having a good stroke alone doesn't equal success from downtown.
Well, I think it's time to throw away that paper and start a new one.
The whole team isn't shooting well. Something is off.
Many high school teams shoot better from 3 than we do.
You know how some of these kids are wearing the "i cant breath" warm ups? I think our guys should come out in "I cant shoot" shirts.
watching other college games how other teams make open 3's. It seems so shocking after watching our games.
