Statistically, no, our leading returning guys are not.  Last year they all shot about 32-33% from three.
We hope they will all improve to around 37% or so.  If they do, we will be fine. Conceptually, with more options, they should get better shots.  But I said at the beginning of the year, not all three of them are likely to all improve the same amount.

I'm a little disappointed with Buddy getting the yips these past 2 games. He seemed so cool in the scrimmages.  Carey has just started playing.  He and Frank are going to be fine.

Buddy will start hitting again, but maybe he won't shoot 45% from this year; maybe that's next  year.  But we need him to do better than 1-11 and 1-5.  And he will.  He's got a great stroke.  He knows the Dome, he knows the guys, he knows the zone, he knows everything there is to know about the program.  He has the talent.  C'mon, Buddy.  You got this.

I agree that Hughes has been better than expected.  He has a lot to offer this team. Glad he has an extra  year, too.  He could be a Ryan Blackwell type of leader for us next year.
