This has been amazing and magical season, and I thank LB and the kids for everything they have done so far. Don't misunderstand, love how this team has performed.

However, as I posted this earlier this season our FT shooting needs to be better than 70% for us to have shot going forward I think, especially if we get in tight tourney game. I'd prefer closer to 80% but I think if we can get to the 70% to 75% range consistently and still continue to defend and rebound much better chance for us. Probably 2 games we lost a shot at winning because of FT so far, and hate for us to blow tourney game because of FT alone.

The great thing about FT's are that they're free-no defender in your face, plenty of time, etc. No reason why players at this level and above shouldn't all shoot 70%+. It has always amazed me when great players, even big men, don't shoot at least 70%.

You can bet the opposing coaches in the tourney will take notice.

Gotta fix this fast...
