BYU ranks 119th in FG percentage.

I wonder how often a team that ranks that low in that category has made the tourney as an at-large bid.

Part of the problem is the lack of inside scoring outside of Davies.

And when you live and die by the jumpshot, hopefully you are good at the jumpshot. Which BYU is not. If you recruit slow white guys that can't shoot--watch out!

*not all white guys are slow. Jackson Emery was very fast and athletic. The greatest BYU guard defender in memory.
