Your comparison is ridiculous. Villanova had real, proven shooters in Hart, Jenkins, Arcidiacano, Brunson. Throw Booth in also. Jay Wright (just like today) runs tightly scripted plays and options. He doesn't like to waste possessions.If you had reading comprehension, I was only using Villanova early 2016 3 point shooting woes as an example that ISU is better than the current 3 pt shooting %. Compared nothing else to ISU and Villanova. Why are you talking about Villanova’s defense and winning championships, again?
If you can't shoot from the outside, you're not allowed to shoot for Villanova.
Now compare that to ISU - where anyone seemingly has a green light, whether they can really shoot or not. No shot discipline.
Bottom line: if Nixon, Bolton and Jacobson (to name three) played for Wright, they would be pulled from the floor if they ever jacked a 3.
Get real.
