I base that comment on Oats comments in the preseason this year. He was asked if they worked on free throws in the offseason after the showing against UCLA game and said no. They he didnt feel they needed to do anything extra for free throws. So if it isnt emphasized enough it is the coaches fault. Guys can put up a 1000 shots a practice but it doesnt do shit for shooting at the line. I agree with u that players need to hit the shots. But it just seems its not a talking point when we have great 3 point shooters but they cant hit the free ones at the line
