Offense

[rubjk]

So explain if Pike and staff are inept offensive coaches we go from 273 to 171 in offensive efficiency?

This might help explain:

Points per game: 69.6
National ranking: t-218 (w/ Howard, Norfolk St. and Detroit Mercy)

In case the link doesn’t work, we are on page 5 of the team rankings.

Yeah but pace of play has a huge effect on those numbers.

Does howard play our schedule? Silly rankings, should only use power 5 schools in list

And we improved there too from 331 to 322 to 278 to 221

And who dictates our pace of play?

Again you don’t go from 300s to 50 in a season. I’m showing the steady improvement.

We do. But that lowers ppg. You can average 50 ppg but if you give up 40 ppg you can win a lot.
