My thoughts on our shooters....
HokieHill β€’ 01/28/26 09:44 AM ET
It is INCREDIBLY difficult to change the shooting form...
GCHokie34 β€’ 01/28/26 11:40 AM ET
Amazes me that players make it to college level with hideous form…

One nitpick - I may disagree about the jumping in the box...
HokieHill β€’ 01/28/26 11:59 AM ET
Again...we aren't talking about turning someone into Steph Curry

I thought the other day, Neo should take the fadeaway out of his arsenal.

BTW - enjoying discussion - appreciate your responses....
HokieHill β€’ 01/28/26 12:13 PM ET
Agree, and I would add finishing with a consistent release point**
Hoke β€’ 01/28/26 11:47 AM ET
I agree - they are what they are - but

In a perfect world with unlimited time, sure...
GCHokie34 β€’ 01/28/26 11:52 AM ET
I agree with you - I'm not communicating well....
HokieHill β€’ 01/28/26 12:20 PM ET
#5 is the issue for both Shutt and Neo. Shots are pancake flat. Of . .

Yep - MY calls it a rut...

Hate ain’t great, it just helps to debilitate!! Dumbest thing ever for it!!
Stech β€’ 01/28/26 10:47 AM ET
Good points. Should be made with each guy at each practice. **
George Baylor β€’ 01/28/26 10:02 AM ET
athletes don't think about techniques when shooting
Windows NT β€’ 01/28/26 09:52 AM ET
This seems part of Neo's issue. Sometimes he almost appears . .
MidloHokie β€’ 01/28/26 11:39 AM ET
imo neo has a nice shooting stroke
Windows NT β€’ 01/28/26 11:44 AM ET
Zactly. Pull the trigger!!! I think his brain is getting the way :)**
MidloHokie β€’ 01/28/26 12:18 PM ET
Young players should be taught proper form to build good muscle memory
HokieHill β€’ 01/28/26 09:59 AM ET
but you're saying all should have the same technique. which is incorrect**
Windows NT β€’ 01/28/26 10:00 AM ET
Consistent technique or form is more important than perfect technique.
wwhokie1 β€’ 01/28/26 10:32 AM ET
Agree completely...
HokieHill β€’ 01/28/26 10:38 AM ET
like any sport esp golf, consistency is the key
Windows NT β€’ 01/28/26 10:33 AM ET
I'm not - but the 5 things I mention are part of every good shooters form
