This statement makes me think you don't watch basketball other than when Auburn's playing. Mcadoo is a junior and his free throw shooting has gotten worse each year (62% as a freshman, 52% now as junior). Free throw shooting is a lost art even in the NBA.


Didn't realize Mcadoo had gotten so bad this year. How is UNC as a team this year? What about previous years?

Point still stands. The best teams with the best coaches consistently shoot free throws well. That is a known fact. Barbee has not had a single team that is even respectable with regards to free throw shooting.

As I said previously, watch how they finish the season. It will be very telling.

I predict it won't be pretty. I very much hope I'm wrong though.

Comparing UNC team to Auburn team isn't far. Auburn isn't an elite basketball program like UNC. If you are expecting a coach to make us into UNC, Duke, Kansas, Kentucky, you might be waiting awhile. Those should recruit themselves, Auburn doesn't have that luxury.

Right now as a team, Auburn shoots free throws better than Georgetown, Arkansas, Oklahoma State, Tennessee, Florida State, Syracuse (#1 team in the country), Kentucky, and Ole Miss. Louisville, UNC, and Texas too.
