So for his last season they were the highest scoring team in their conference in PPG. Didnt look at the previous years.

Last year's B1G scoring averages:
80.1 ppg: Iowa (Nobody is surprised they are #1! Also worst in pts allowed per game at 74.7...)
72.2 - 74.7 ppg: Penn State, Ohio State, Purdue, Michigan, Illinois, Indiana
70.9 ppg: Michigan State
69.7 ppg: Maryland
68.4 ppg: Rutgers
I can easily see us at 72-74 ppg with just a slightly higher tempo. Especially if this year's team is able to press more often (Mag, stay healthy!), leading to more easy buckets.

Pike has said he won the league with both the best defensive and best offensive teams before
Pike's history shows he is willing to adapt to the talent on his team which to me is a sign of a great coach
It's easier to rebuild by preaching defense rebounding and toughness. You can't come into a #dumpsterfire program and immediately recruit elite offensive talent. Pike built the program up and now is at a point where he is able to reel in better offensive talent. He isn't going to hold them back. Pike will play to their strengths and unleash them
His last season at Stonybrook the team made 38 percent of its threes in conference only games and was the third most efficient offense in the conference (111.8). Their tempo...next to last.
