Levi, Tarrant and Hale are also decent shooters. Having guys that can't shoot is not Bama's problem

Disagree.

1. Hale has been an abysmal shooter until the last couple games, and Tarrant has been a very inefficient 3 pt shooter. The fact that you didn't mention Cooper and mentioned Hale confuses me.

2. Even with the much smoother offense we had at the beginning of the season, we were missing 3s like crazy.

Shooting is certainly not our only problem, but it is a major problem. That also shouldn't be an excuse for Grant. These are all his players...

Kind of sad that they all were suppose to be known as good shooters when coming to Bama besides Levi. Tarrant even killed us one year SMH.

Cooper was mentioned. Cooper along with Norris are the two that have shot over 40% from behind the arc all season. Figured that would be obvious. The next three were listed below them, Hale, Tarrant and Levi. All five of these guys are decent to very good shooters. That is more than enough on a college team.

Although I didn't list Hale as the top guy, I believe he is the best shooter on the team. A guy's shooting percentage, just like a team's shooting percentage, does not tell the whole story. I'd put Norris as second best. Of course if you just want to use percentages to see who the best shooters are, google is all that is needed. That is just not my preferred method.


For clarification on my posts in this thread. Yes, shooting for this Bama team is a problem. Having enough good shooting players on the team, is not the problem. Bama has plenty of good shooters, imo.
