I was looking at some stats and noticed that we are literally the worst team in the country at free throw defense by percentage. Last year we were 326/351, and this year we are 351/351. Our student section needs to step up their game!

Band chants need work. They arent hilariously ironic anymore. Whatever happened to the classics like "the ball is a rubber chicken" or "the ball is bigger than the hoop"????
Atleast one band member has to frequent this forum. And to that band member I say, your chants suck.
Said it once and will say it again, if you can hear ~40 bandies chanting stupid **** during a free throw, maybe you should blame the other 13,000 people for not being nearly loud enough during free throws...
Maybe it's because cyclone alley swings their stupid little wave board 2 seconds after the ball leaves the shooters hand.
Time to implement the curtain if distraction?
Did you know that TV broadcasts can actually travel even more than 2 time zones? Fun fact.Can we use this horrible stat as a way to ban the "you're shooting a greasy bowling ball" chant from the band? I'm two time zones away now and I still hear that crap through the TV broadcast.
Notice that we are 2nd in the nation in FTA/FGA. We allow an extremely low amount of FTs. I'd guess we don't foul bigs anywhere near as much as other teams, and our opponents play more guards to matchup to our lineups. That is my best explanation. Guards shooting leads to better percentages. Then add bigs shooting a little ahead of their normal averages and all of a sudden you're 351-351.
Hopefully we're due for some regression to the mean.
