Great win, but we have a free throw problem...

[DeviousDawg]

In the last 6 games we have made 80 of 141 FT attempts(56.7%). It's not just Herard either, if he is making ~50% I'm happy.

Q: 14/23 (60.9%)
Kegler: 12/21 (57.1%)
Herard: 18/40 (45%)
Peters: 16/23 (69.6%)
Holman: 2/7 (28.6%)
Stapleton; 6/12 (50%)

Free throws don't get harder when you enter SEC play. What the hell is going on? They are FREE throws, and we have missed 61 in 6 games.

You are correct but UT was awful too. I have never seen q shoot that poorly from the line much less the field.

Very poor form on FT. They lean back on their heals way to much. They should finish on their toes and leaning forward. That will create better efficiency. Only other thing about this team is that our shooters will NOT follow their shots. Would help with Offensive rebounds and would get us extra looks.

We really need Herard to improve his free throw shooting. With his style of play inside, he will draw a lot of fouls over his career. He will be at the line probably more than any player on our team over the next several years.
