It hasn’t been as bad as you think in recent years, though there were two really bad seasons. Our KenPom offensive efficiency has been top 50 in three different seasons since joining the ACC. 2014 (28th), 2016 (50th), and 2017 (30th). Now 2015 and 2018 were both sub-100, so that’s not good. But let’s stick to the numbers. And PPG is not as helpful or telling stat because it doesn’t adjust for pace of play/number of possessions. You have to look at efficiency.
Actually, Floor % is more useful at charting this. Unfortunately none of our OGoggled friends and colleagues here ever feel like discussing this. This is where you can factor in how our pace/tempo has been plummeting. The ratio of Scoring Possessions VS Total Possessions.
2014: 127
2015: 179
2016: 62
2017: 159
Current: 140
