It's not that they tell them don't shoot them, they don't scheme for outside shooting, run sets for outside shooting, or in any way emphasize it. Woodson himself has publicly acknowledged he doesn't. Only way you finish at the bottom of all DI ball on shooting 3's is not integrating them in your system. Run sets, run plays for guys to launch, make it a priority. All need to happen.

Understand the point. But there is 5+ open 3’s a game that were passed up. The players passed them up, without the coaches telling them to not shoot an open 3. They take what’s already open and they average the same number of 3pt shots a game as Purdue.

Either way, it's a coaching problem. If you say they are not told to pass up the shot and they pass up the shot, you aren't doing a good job of coaching them.

I don't know why but he reminds me of Jerome Hunter

Unfortunately, if he were to come here, MR would not be guarding him in games.

IU recruiting is so weird right now.  lol.   Going to get 3 out of state top 10 or at least top 20 transfers and an out of state 5 star freshman but can’t land an in state shooter. Crazy you would have think that would be flipped

Style of play and lack of 3 point shooting is probably well talked about through the state over the last several years. Other than bigs and an occasional point guard, we really haven’t excelled . We have an Indiana high school disconnect, and I’m hoping it changes with Mullins and Sisney.

Mabey the perspective of the shooting issues are real.

I’ve noticed that they would rather shot fake and drive it to the basket. Maybe the coaches teach that or that the players feel more comfortable doing that but it happens way too much.  TG is the worst but I think his is a confidence problem

While it is on the players in a game to put up the shot, that over the course of several seasons is on the staff.

that direction and confidence needs to be built in practice and demanded of the players.

IMO, Rice and Carlyle were kind of shopping themselves as a pair because they wanted to play together.  I think if you have the choice to get neither and shop for two others, you take both every time.  I don't think Rice and Conwell or Carlyle and Conwell was ever an option.

Rice and Carlyle are top 10 or top 15 guys in the portal.  You take them and say THANK YOU.

Unless in-state guys know something the out-of-state guys don’t…

Were we ever an option for Conwell? I only see where he visited NC State and Xavier.

Tried - but couldn’t get him on campus.

[68Hoosier]

Any word on how the current visits are going?

I saw that Brendan Hausen from Villanova is expected to visit Nebraska now on Monday. Seems most of their fans hope they don’t put the full press on trying to get Essegian if they’re able to end up getting Hausen instead.

Xavier backcourt is stacked.  Not enough minutes to go around I’m guessing.   Claude already left and it’s still loaded
