[QUOTE="peace davids, post: 1271961, member: 16906"] Coming into tonight, we were shooting 47.1% in conference games at home (41.9% from three). After tonight, we are down to 43.1% (37.9% from three). Not enough stats to show definitively, but if UM were an outlier, then tonight brought us back to where we probably should be. In Groce's 5 years at UI, our overall season shooting percentages have been 41.1%, 41.1%, 41.3%, 43.2%, and this year, 46.5% (so far). I would wager that we are going to see a bit more on the low end to close out the conference season. I know that Groce isn't Izzo - but just for comparison sake, Michigan State's FG% over that same timeframe is 45.9%, 47.3%, 46.5%, 48.8%, and 47.5%. Isn't that what we should be striving for? A coach that puts his players in a position to score the ball at a high percentage? I just don't see where Groce does this effectively. [/QUOTE]
