Expect teams to pack it in on us.
Right, so Greggg recruited some shooters as well as athletes, right? Honestly, I don't know.
The guys expected to get them most minutes are not great shooters, but have some range. Last year Ragland was a 50% 3 pt shooter and Smith was in the 40s. I doubt we have anyone this year that will match either one of those. WSU should be able to drive and finish however, so I expect a lot of zone and sagging defenses. That might cause the Shockers fits.
Cotton, Williams, and Wiggins will likely be the best 3 point threats on the court and will likely shoot it in the mid 30s from deep. Great shooters Derail Green and Ron Baker probably won't see a ton of time this year due to other deficiencies in their game.
