    Not necessarily. Could be he is good at passing out of the post to the open 3 point shooter when help defense comes.

        Since the Shox have improved over the last 13 games or so. I am curious how our stats (specifically defense) of just the last 13 games compare to their last 13 games. I realize it is somewhat apples to oranges possibly due to conference differences. Still might be interesting.

        I may have to look into it and break it down.

            This should be a fun game, particularly when the President of Furman leads the cheer:

              That's pretty funny... "FU all the time!"

              Interesting comment where he says that we've "settled in our area" for recruiting. That doesn't appear to be a true statement to me.

              Otherwise, seems like a smart coach.

              Hey, don't rail on my A-game analysis of Furman. I'm just warming up.

                  $15 tickets and students free...They are trying to fill their arena. I hope the atmosphere is good.

                    Very nice interview and impressive sounding guy. If his team weren't playing WSU, I'd be rooting for him -- and I will in the future -- but I hope he finishes second Wednesday night.

                      Actually I miss read the metric - WSU has a strong ability to send the other team to the line. Sorry for the confusion.

                        A lot of respect coming from Furman coaches and players. I still cant get used to how excited teams from smaller conferences are to play a team like Wichita State. Doesnt seem that long ago that we were the ones talking like them and our players and coaches working hard to earn respect.

                        Just shows, once again, how far this program has evolved under Marshall's guidance.

Then they’ll double him and force him to give up the rock in addition to a smaller player too. No telling which one will be more effective.
                          He is a very good passer and has lots of assists, so doubling down is going to be tough.
