Is this the worst 3 point shooting team in Xavier history?
Over the past 18 years only Mack's 2nd team was worse than this team from a % standpoint
That team has Tu, Lyons and Dante shooting the majority of the 3's
This team has a couple of good shooters but we got the wrong guys shooting the 3's

When you are not a good shooting team you can't give away possessions like X does game after game after game

What is the issue with Harden. He can’t be worse than anyone on the floor. Golden is getting schooled by the freshman

Our supposedly athletic team can't play man defense so we play zone against a team that is a great 3 point shooting team. Why is Marshall playing so poorly against good teams?

Welage and Scruggs are 2-5 from 3
Everyone else is 1-6

More concerned about perimeter defense. Marshall and Goodin are just not that great and it is exposed now. Thanks again Mack for the lack of recruits the last two years.

Thanks! Appears that ‘10-‘11 Team only averaged 16.4 three point attempts per game. This squad hoisting up 22.2 ugly threes per game.

Well after that half it is time for some bourbon.
Lots and lots of bourbon

And a long season gets longer and more torturous. Gotta wonder if this team will win any league games. Predictable offense. Just guard close on the perimeter and wait for the pass around the outside.
