I think that happened against Mizzou

As Robert detailed on Illiniboard, pre-UCLA injury Keaton was much better than post-UCLA injury Keaton. That is the difference.

Mirkovich has the next highest increase with +41

Plus, some of the players moved to lower-level teams where they match up against lower-level opponent defenders (shorter, weaker, ...). I'm happy for them that their 3-pt shooting improved, but I am not surprised.

You saw what happened when we tried to foul more -- we got T'd up. Good thing we didn't start fouling earlier, or we would have had multiple guys ejected lol.

Actually, "Gulf of America" is the official name by definition. Off topic, but this is something interesting I learned a couple weeks ago -- the US Geological Survey curates the official names of places. When someone uses Google Maps in the US, they will see the official names from this...

I agree. They are professionals. They should be 100x better than an average fan or peewee league ref. And it is fine for us to expect them to be. They will never be perfect, but they should at least be good all the time and great much of the time. I think there were three ridiculously bad calls...
