Re: Coaches Free Throw Contest
I think Jake wins this round pretty easily. Overall favorite would have to be Steve Alford though. Probably the best shooter in the field. How sweet it would be for Jake to beat Alford head to head thoughOriginally posted by Bier Guy '99 View Post(217): Just watched a UNI fan at the bar lick the tears off of a KU fans face..

Re: Coaches Free Throw Contest
pretty awesome contest. is there a full list of participants anywhere?
i know jake and the mayor are in it. what about McCaffery? he was a great player too. i have to assume Phelps didnt play because he is 5 inches shorter than me and always looks like he just woke up.
the smart money has to be on hoiberg, alford or izzo.Comment

Re: Coaches Free Throw Contest
I would have to pick Tom Izzo. I remember a few years back college gameday did a story on how many free throws he shoots and that he challenges his players in practice. I think they said something like its not a stretch for him to make over 300 (or some ridiculous amount, maybe more than 300) in a row.Originally posted by Cannic88 View PostComment

Re: Coaches Free Throw Contest
pretty much a given Izzo makes the final 4 isn't it

Re: Coaches Free Throw Contest
Arizona's coach has like one of the top FT percentages in NCAA history so we can't count him out either. I don't see Izzo in it.
that would be a good sweet 16 matchup, Jake vs. Miller(217): Just watched a UNI fan at the bar lick the tears off of a KU fans face.. See what march madness does to peopleComment

Re: Coaches Free Throw Contest

Re: Coaches Free Throw Contest
Coach Jake went 20/25 from the FT line to score 24 points. Unfortunately, Bill Self went 21/25 and beat Jake by 1 with 25 points.
The Lord reigns, let the earth be glad; let the distant shores rejoice, clouds and thick darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne. Fire goes before Him, and consumes his foes on every side; His lightning lights up the world; the earth sees and trembles; the mountains melt like wax before the Lord of all the earth. The heavens proclaim His righteousness and all peoples will see His glory.Comment

And the Jayhawks get a small measure of revenge from last March....I have to wonder if they intentionally matched up Self and Coach Jake based on recent history.Comment

Re: Coaches Free Throw Contest
Funny cuz his team lost it at the free throw line tonight, too.
Had they shot as well as coach they would have won, however.

Re: Coaches Free Throw Contest
Update from Register that Hoiberg is in the semi-finals. Interesting that he beat Alford in quarters when both made 25 of 25 they decided to see who could make the most in a row. Alford made 52 and Hoiberg MADE 102 STRAIGHT. Pretty impressive.

Re: Coaches Free Throw Contest
I don't understand how some of these coaches can just make it rain like that. I've heard Izzo has made like hundreds in a row (obviously that statement has no credibility). I mean how often do players go on streaks like that?Comment
