Foreman is second best regular at FT% at .711. That isn't a major issue in his game.
Overall the team is shooting FTs at a .620 clip. Yikes.
Not to pile on, but in D1 games his FT shooting is 69.4%...
Not as steady as you need from your senior PG. Also find it odd that in a few games we worked to get him the ball at the end, when it should clearly be going to Betley.
I think Foreman has really improved himself and does a few things very well (great rebounding for a guard, doesn't turn it over much) and generally is a calming force, but his challenges are areas where there are already holes on this team, e.g. poor shooting (15% from 3 right now) and court vision. When he drives, he's putting his head down and headed toward the hoop.
In general I think we just need less of both Foreman and Woods at the same time.

The issue with Darnell and free throws is when he misses them. The memories last longer when these occur in end game scenarios. Not to mention front ends.
Game is on comcast channel 19 in the northwest burbs.

I didn't see it mentioned but Devon Goodman was a DNP vs Howard. Let's see if he makes an appearance tonight.

Brown leads Providence by 8, six minutes into the second half. Brown has led wire to wire with a lead that was once 15 points.
The game is on Fox Sports 2.

Williams is listed in the Game Tracker's roster. Is that a new development?

If they can hold on, it will be the IL's best win of the year by a country mile.

Foreman's first shot is an airball.

Airball aside, Foreman has done a nice job trying to set up others.
Lafayette's size is giving us some problems on the other end.

Right now we are missing a lot of very open shots from distance from folks we want to see shooting the rock.
Foreman continues to impress as the floor leader, though--making a variety of good plays

Why can't Jackson make wide open 3s? I just don't get it. Remember the days of guys like Schiffner and Zoller kept getting better from 3 as their careers went along?

Donahue can't stay in the game if they play man to man defense. His guy is abusing him.

Foreman takes it all the way to the hoop--and finishes. Well played.

WOW--an amazing stuff by Brown, go the other way to tie it again. That was SC Top 10 worthy.
