Gu is shooting 58% from three
(18-of-31) through six games, and he defends and rebounds as well as any guard out there. Not bad for a guy who many wanted to run off last season.

He is dropping off. He was at 67% at Moody. Slacker!!

Honestly think he is one of those players where he never could get in a rhythm coming off the bench. He has good technique and was a good scorer before he transferred. Glad he has put it together for this year.

I think it is because he was never fully healthy until this year.

Re: Gu is shooting 58% from three
I think it was largely shot selection-early in last 2 seasons he would take contested 3s or 3s off the dribble. He's a spot-up open 3 shooter

His motion is much smoother now also. He was always enough of a player to have out there, but he's now the total package. He was already one of our best shooters last year, but some were slow to notice the change. Gu haters feel free to apologize.

Re: Gu is shooting 58% from three
Gu has never hit a high percentage of treys until this year. His FR year at VT he handled the ball quite a bit. As 6th man for SMU he was often spotting our PG so he hasn't had as many good looks as he's getting this season. Despite shooting 30 something percent the past 2 seasons, he's always been a guy who rebounded, played good D and shared the ball. Very unselfish guy and I'm hoping this continues and he has a monster senior season. Lucky to have him.

The last half of last year he was among our best shooters.

Re: Gu is shooting 58% from three
yep I remember last year-he got it going after end of Fall semester. Didn't he hit a couple in AAC Tournament Championship too. Yep I think one may have been the dagger

He sparked the comeback against Cincy at Moody.
