And? Do you have some stats or other objective data that indicates the shooting % of a player who shoots less is going to be higher than someone who takes more shots? I'm just interested in the basis of the opinion. If the data indicates that then I'll gladly concede the point.
Of course, it could also be that he doesn't take bad shots which leads to a higher shooting %, which also is a big plus for the team. BTW, Hadley shot 84% on FT's vs 73% for Heise.

I have no inside knowledge but was speculating we take Heise if Hadley chose MSU.
If true I think this kills chance with Hadley.
That is already a crowded backcourt with 3 returning and Milan getting some time at the 3. Now Heise.
We’re probably also red shirting Pierce and Nojus at this point which I hope is not a bait and switch because one/both could leave.
I just really don’t like this.
Also getting worried we’ve not landed another 4 yet.
R-e-l-a-x The portal has been open a week and there is 900 players looking for spots.
The staff is recruiting both Hadley and Heise. Not a one or other situation.
No decisions will be made in RS Pierce or Nojus until the fall.

With what we have committed and returning, we're really looking for an 8th guy maybe? Nothing in TJ's tenure suggests that we should be worried about anything.
We need size and size, rebounding and interior scoring is what cost us this year. 4 4 -5 won’t last for a full season in the BIG XII.
Yikes, I think we all saw how that just worked out this year. Let's hope we actually get to see them play in a Cyclone uniform at some point.
I don’t think either came here to sit. Especially Nojus.
I trust TJ but I don’t see why Heise was a target with the backcourt we have returning. We desperately need another 4 - at least as good as Ward and King.
Nojus or Pierce would be immediately better than Pav due just to their size.
Pav was already smallest guy on the court at any time and his first move was to drive into the lane, pick up his dribble, and get low (making himself even smaller).
SD State center is getting a home visit from Otz/staff this week, after he visits NE.
My goodness people. Even of both Heise and Hadley commit (and hopefully they do) we still have two scharships open for a couple "4's."
From what I have read both Heise and Hadley rebound at an extremely high level for guards. Genuinely feel like TJ wants to play more small ball next year. To do that your guards need to be exceptional on the glass.

Do people really think Hadley is leaving Colorado to come play 15 minutes a game?
Yes. Though closer to 20. I expect, with the intensity that ISU plays D they are looking to do 10 guys with significant minutes.
Part of ISU's struggles on offense stem from tired legs playing the kind of D they throw out there.
There are 120 minutes a game to be had at 1-3 spots.
Tamin, Curtis, and Keshon should be around 90 of this. Maybe more. Milan - even if he plays some at the 4 - is going to get some of these minutes. One has to assume TJ lead Heise to believe he’s going to see minutes if he is coming here.
It doesn’t add up.
This is basically guaranteeing Nojus and Pierce both red shirt. And that Milan is playing heavy minutes at the 4.
Don't know. Obviously there is interest. He's allegedly only meeting with 2 teams.
We also don't know ISU's pitch, or plans for him.
I think people focus way too much on traditional lineups. Our lineup next year will be PG, PG/SG, SG, SF, C. Hadley will prolly play some "4" since he's 6'6 and rebounds well.
