Exactly. Same spot, ball off the pass, no defense, put up 10 in a row, move to next spot.

Very possible, but I choose to believe he will be a big part of what we do this year. He has a long history of injuries, but he’s not glass joe. He’s a bruiser that just needs a better string of luck imo
Fwiw, my daughter attended a Travis Ford shooting clinic the summer after he graduated. I got there early the last day to pick her up. Ford was doing a shooting drill while miked up and talking to the kids. 20 shots from 5 spots around the 3 line with a passer. One of the kids asked him how many he usually hit. He said 19 or 20 out of 20. He missed maybe 3 out of the 200 shots I saw him take. He also said he took 1,000 3's a day.
Wilkins is going to be nasty, I hope we keep him at least 2 years, maybe 3 if he’s not a NBA player by then.
I know Potter won’t be a star but he is a good athlete. I hope he isn’t pressed into playing that much but I think he can give Moreno a blow if needed for a few minutes.
If he can just hold his own for limited breaks for Mo he has value.

Yeah, I have seen guys do that in practice, it's like shooting free throws anymore
I mean....if he can walk and chew gum he should be able to give him a 3-4 minute blow either half without killing us
Agree to disagree with the second part.
Hurley and Izzo would disagree with you. Unless you consider them, ya know, not true coaches. Some "true" coaches recruit players to fit their system. Some "true" coaches adapt their system to their players (Self, Coach K). Some "true" coaches just collect talent like infinity stones and roll the ball out there (Cal for example).
Honestly his dunk looked a lot more powerful and nice than I was expecting
K tells a story about Bobby Knight. K played PG for him at Army. He said Knight ran a particular drill every practice at Army. After K graduated and got into high school coaching, he thought if that drill was so important to Knight, that it should be important to him. He ran that drill everyday in his practices.
K then got a job as an assistant under Knight at IU. K was shocked the first day at practice that Knight did not run the drill, but he was to scared to question Knight about it. After a few weeks, K finally worked up his nerve and asked why the drill was not being run. Knight said, "Michael, you were no Quinn Buckner."
He has never played as few as 5 games in a season. He played in 27 games last season while starting 25 of them.
McBride looks like a baller to me. I hope it translates against good teams because every time I see him play he looks like he has game.
We heard that last year. He must do it in games. Personally I think his athletic ceiling prevents it at this level. He can’t get by his man with speed or skill and it crushes his confidence and takes away his best skill which is shooting. I hope that changes, he’s a great kid.And, yet, Milan said Noah has been the best player for the first three weeks.
