Good point about the free throw percentage. I have a job for 59. Go through our season and strictly on a point basis check to see if any of the outcomes would have changed using 75% across the board as points made from the foul line. My guess would be 3 or 4 extra W’s. Unfortunately, at the computer speed I move at, next season would be over. Now, 86 might be the answer to your question. That response forfeits your right to any more questions. |

Outcome flipped with 75% made free throws: 11/29 Marist 01/07 Niagara 02/23 Rider (could argue rounding error tie) An extra 2+ conference W's impacts seeding. Moral of the story: "charity tosses matter". |

Unfortunately, my contract with Guy states that I must ask the 'equivalent' of 50 questions per week. And since I quit my job this is my only source of income. Of course if you would set up a Go Fund Me account, I'm all in. But before that happens, what if I phrase a question as follows: My friend wants to know ........... ? |

You will never get that center while he is coaching Would hope the coach would consider a big, burly 5 who can work in the paint. Would help against the league teams that play half court slug fest style games. I know Tobin likes to press and play 100 mph but every game doesn’t warrant that style. If that was the case Ayo and Sunday would have been on the roster |

I can't speak to how "burly" they are, but I do know we are aggressively recruiting size (6-8 and up). |

Good to hear! Doesn’t have to be a nightclub bouncer type but a big body who can board and defend interior shots. |

The point I was trying to make was that we had an untested big in Sultan, Oz as a 4 playing 5 at times and Panzo a 3/4 also playing 5. I think our team could use some size. Glad to hear we are looking to fill that need. |
