jayschool Posted February 5, 2020 Report Share Posted February 5, 2020 FT percentages for our three JUCO commits: Tominaga 41-of-49 for 83.7 percent Mayen 48-of-57 for 84.2 percent Allen 145-of-161 for 90.1 percent Our top three FT shooters by number of attempts this year: Mack 50-of-87 for 57.5 percent Cheatham 55-of-85 for 64.7 percent Burke 35-of-65 for 53.8 percent The only players with percentages higher than 65 percent are Thor (69 percent), Easley (69) and Kavas (68), but they have combined for a total of only 64 attempts on the season, and Kavas is now an empty-the-bench late-game sub. Career FT percentages of our three transfer sit-out players: Stevenson 68-of-113 for 60.3 percent Walker 15-of-44 for 34.1 percent Banton 19-of-34 for 55.9 percent HB 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hhcmatt Posted February 5, 2020 Report Share Posted February 5, 2020 In 2001-02 Kimani Ffriend almost single-handedly drug Nebraska into the D-1 cellar of FT shooting as we finished 317th out of about 325 or so teams, making 59.3% of them. This year's team is currently at 59.2% and I have yet to make the depressing slog into the record books to find a team that's been worse.

Chuck Taylor Posted February 5, 2020 Report Share Posted February 5, 2020 FYI, Grant Simmons was drafted by the Bullets in 1966 and ended up playing for the ABA Denver Rockets. One of my early heroes. Handy Johnson and Cazzie22 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
