Not a single ISU player ended up in double digits in any statistical category.

If they shot slightly below average from 3, they probably have at least 5 more wins. Instead, they sit at 342 of 351 in 3-point percentage and 316 in effective field goal percentage with 9 losses to go along with it. Some shots start falling, some wins will come their way.

If they are a bad shooting team why should there be an expectation that shots will start falling?

Burford last year: 33%, this year 21%
Poindexter last year: 37%, this year 25%
Kasubke last year: 35%, this year 31%
Regression across the board. So, if these guys can get back to their averages from last year, wins should start trickling in.

Fair enough. Good point. I'm amazed Burford has been that bad.
