You cannot expect to make all free throws

But that would’ve been a different outcome if we converted on most if not all of our free throws.

The and-1 free throws were pretty much all missed.

If you’re Brad, how do you balance tons of free throw practice with practicing regular things that they need?

PJ, Joe, and Chase Hunter are gone.

There’s so much to work on, but new players.

What do you expect next season?

I think the expectation and standard is making the tournament. That’s the expectation, because apparently Brad is that good.

Not necessarily. Very few teams (I think 5) over last 30+ years have made the NCAA tournament over 60% of the time.

But that is looking at all Div1 teams and across history of Tournament.
Looking at most consecutive appearances:

I think we should look at a targeting a streak for Clemson over next 5-7 years:

Goal win 20+ games in 4 of next 6 seasons
Goal to finish .600 or better in ACC in each of next 5-6 seasons
Goal reach ACC semifinals 2x in next 5-6 seasons
Goal to play in one ACC final in next 5-6 seasons
Goal to have 3 to 4 straight NCAA appearances over next 6 seasons

You convince you guys that it would better serve them and their team if they would come in and practice Free Thows on their time bc the NCAA only allows them but this amount of time to develop players, and free throws is something they can practice as a group on their own, and the NCAA couldn't do anything about them doing that. That's how I would try to handle the free throw practice, and I would try to encourage them to do that every day after practice.

We are shooting 78% from the line after the game so it was better before the game. I think the only time we looked tight was at the line and that had not happened all year.
