So, we got Vandy at home with honoring Billy Donovan by naming the court after him. Hope that improves our play.
At 8 pm === first game back on Feb 1 ............ KJ scored 20 ...... next Nembhard
Donovan will be courtside? Let's learn from Donovan what we need to know = is he taller than White?
Perhaps Donovan knows an NBA forward player that is thinking about coaching college?
Just think about some retiree like Nowinski guiding Gators.
We've got Blackshear our leading scorer at 13.5 ............KJ at 13.3 ..... Nembhard at 12 ... Now that ought to instill fear in Vandy.
Jitoboh averages 9 minutes per game. He's foul-prone but has he been coached diligently? Against aTm Jitiboh played 9 minutes had 4 fouls. And Payne ... FT% .... 39.3% ...... Jitoboh ...... FT% .... 38.5% .... I guarantee those guys could raise their FT% by the next game. Underhanded the release point for a tall guy, leaning forward that release point is nearly 2-ft closer. Less arc distance to visualize, lesser distance for the ball to veer off. Payne and Jitoboh should be able to gauge the trajectory more consistently. With those 2 big men shooting 50% (still terrible) we'd get probably 6-8 more points per game and their pride would soar. Just have them shoot for 30 minutes in 2 practices.
