Shooting

I'd like to see more of him at the end of a NCAA Championship game...I wasn't. since he didn't redshirt, he's in the class with Dji and Isaiah.
I'm not sure if he's a true shooter or more of a scorer. he is shooting a blistering 50% from 3 though! I'd like to see more of him in the CBI.
yes VCU has dominated us. no argument. and we can judge Mooney on that.
but your post was about specific players not improving. and most of them did.
problem with the "improvement" discussion, is that in line with the Mooney mantra, we are only discussing offensive improvement. Sman, you have been quite critical of Cayo's defense in the past, losing his man, getting beat off the dribble etc. Grant and Grace just back off when they go against a physical interior player for the most part. Rebounding - yes players like Tyler have much more natural ability, but it can be prioritized. Burton's defense is not great. Gilly was a steal machine coming of out h.s., Mooney didn't teach him that. Not much if any improvement is seen on the defensive side of the ball. I know the mooney mantra only focuses on offense though.
agreed, the bulk of the improvement is on the offensive side. I do think Burton has improved defensively, but no he's not all-league defense yet. Grace is better defensively too, and he plays harder and quicker in general on both ends compared to his early days.
I agree on Grace, his improvement is pretty noticeable in most games between now and his first few years.
I think this team is all about person own records and stats victories not winning the game. I guess one day for the future with gray hair they will think Why did we not win those games? I think nothing can motivate this group of players. That out of bounds lob for win still makes me sick as a fan and is how I know this team is a team that fails to win because more in the head than in the shoes. They should read this and be pissed off not be cry babies about it. Easy to shut my mouth I think by winning.

This is damning right here. And unfortunately most on this board save 2 or 3 know this is the truth. Culture of records and comfort.
How can we be 3-11 from foul line. How come Grant gets ball in zone inside foul line and does not shoot?
Whoever changed Cayo’s shooting form from HS should be ffing shot. RIU is smart and double teaming Burton
daring the others to shoot. Goos took open shots but was there any other option. Bye Mooney.
