This has been an issue since the opener against American. While they are poor shooters as a group, they also do not get good shots. The plan of attack isn't good. IMO, they do not really have a good triple threat decision maker to enter the ball to at the high post. While he is their best % shooter from 3, I am proposing that DeCosey may be the best option. he has the size to shoot mid-range shots, and can get to the rim. His decision making and passing ability are not good.
Does anybody have a better option? I also thought of what many coaches do which is to run your man offense, including ball screens to help Cummings penetrate. I have seen little if any of that this year. Dunphy seems to want to surround the 3 point line with shooters, but this obviously isn't working. If we get by Houston, ECU will be very tough. We shot very poorly against their zone, and were saved by a 30-10 rebounding advantage in the 1st half. That won't happen again.
