My favorite part of that article has to be that teams are shooting better at DePaul than they are at home. Must not be anyone there to distract them ;D

+2.4% at Notre Dame?!? I would have expected just the opposite considering that all those mouth-breathers and the leper-con are only 15 feet away from the shooter.

Thank the band for this. They go absolutely nuts during free throws and have organized chants and yells. The idiot jumping up and down and flailing madly was my little brother...he learned from the best!
