Is it too much to ask for a 100% FT shooter? They're free, it's in the name! (I joke. Really looking forward to seeing him play for IU.) pumpfake, Dave from Dayton, J34 and 2 others 2 3 Quote

Yeah, during the game the announcer cut loose with the blatant jinx. Cupps steps to the line and the guy says, “Cupps is shooting 91.8% from the line. He’s automatic.” Jesus, he might as well have just thrown a black cat at him. Rico, ALASKA HOOSIER, Hoosierfanyuh and 8 others 5 6 Quote
