Show a recruit all of the wide open jumpers Justin Smith either passed up or flatout bricked or airballed, and let the recruit know that it would be them nailing those shots within our system. It's not like stretch 4's don't get tons of shot opportunities, most ever team runs the exact same stuff, we're just looking for someone that wants to come in and actually take/make those shots. I kinda agree with that but I’m not sure it’s that simple. The reason Justin is so open is not because of the offense. It’s because the other team played way off him and didn’t respect him(rightfully so). Truth of the matter is we didn’t run ANY action for Justin. Precisely because it would be pointless but when opposing coaches are showing guys how they will run plays for them, how they will utilize them, and have guys being successful and going pro etc etc that makes it easier to envision. I know what you are saying and agree somewhat because there would be shots for him and he would see plenty of touches but kids want to see successful utilization. Showing a kid that never developed a shot, a handle, a move...doesn’t instill confidence you will get the most out of me. Will you improve my game? They want proof of concept if you know what I mean. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I know you didn’t mean it to harm but we all were 17 once...it wasn’t easy going through puberty and be the butt of someone’s joke. The world could definitely do with a little more kindness. Truth is truth but the good book says we should deliver it with love (kindness).

As a recruit that is a shooter, I would be licking my chops to know I have a real chance to step into that role and get playing time right away. That may make sense logically, but I just don’t see how highlighting missed shots in an offense that has quite frankly been atrocious since Archie got here is going to be very appealing to recruits. Especially in a situation like thus, where we’re competing against a team that had the third ranked offense last year. Miller has repeated multiple times how much he loves Creighton’s offense — recruits really don’t say that about IU. And I know you say that IU runs the same offense as any other school, but I really don’t think it’s a friendly offense for shooters. IU has ranked 272nd, 297th, and 325th in threes attempted since Archie got here (with the ranking going down each year). A quick three early in the shot clock gets an underclassman immediately pulled and chewed out, and players have clearly been tentative and hesitant to pull the trigger when they do get an open shot. To me, limiting three point attempts appears to be a feature of the offense, not a bug. Edit - 3PA rankings during Archie’s tenure at Dayton: 2011: 27th 2012: 299th 2013: 205th 2014: 165th 2015: 208th 2016: 181st Edited November 19, 2020 by FW_Hoosier 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The big problem is we didn't have many players you wanted to take those shots, so they didn't. I mean I know I'm not the only one that thought holy crap every time Justin Smith threw up another brick. Basically Al, Rob, and then Jerome towards the end of the year were the only guys I would want shooting threes consistently on last years roster. I think the news recruits will help curb this some. Leal, Galloway, Geronimo, and Lander all seem like above average shooters. I again think we need to see what happens when AM actually gets HIS players into the system. I don't think we will ever be a top 25 team in attempts but possibly top 75 or so. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
