    Disturbing trend under Steele

    Free throw shooting has been abysmal so far under Steele. Yesterday was particularly terrible. I think 7 guys went to the line and NO ONE made a single freebie except ZFree! We hardly got to the line anyway, which is equally disturbing. Only 13 attempts vs that team? What the hell is going on?

    It seems like forever that Xavier's calling card was that we made more FTs than the other team ATTEMPTED. This has been a very powerful and undeniable factor in our decades of success but for some reason Steele is not cutting it. In fact, the table has nearly been turned on us a couple of times, especially the UConn game.

    We just are not getting to the line nearly enough, and obviously, not making enough when we do....with this roster of physical/athletic upperclassmen it's inexcusable. We simply have to start drawing more fouls. Anyone have a theory on why we're not? I predict that if these mediocre FT #'s/% continue, a mediocre record will follow.
