Ryan Staudacher leads the nation in 3 point %

[WashGriz]

Of all d1 players that have made 18 or more 3 point shots Stauds has the best percentage 64.5%

I watched on tv Kyle McAlrney from NDame he can really hit em..from deep! he has made
39 of 76 shots for 51.3 %.

some of the percentages below seem pretty low...maybe the new three point line is having an effect or
these guys are just big gunners. :roll:

that is impressive. No doubt he can shoot lights out if he is left alone. If we played North Dakota every game, he would continue to lead the nation. However, some teams have shown that with tight defense on him he is unable to get shots off or provide much offense at all. He doesn't get assists, he doesn't rebound. He's basically ONLY a shooter. Every team needs one,but I hope Tinks realizes not to keep him out there for huge minutes in games where it is obvious he is not gonna be affective that game.

I am sure NAU would have him hoisting at will. I love their "recruit to shoot" mentality. To be honest until this team establishes consistent inside scoring, teams will continue to do everything possible to keep Staudacher from killing them. If I were coaching against the GRIZ, I would harass Jordan and Staudacher all night and force others to beat us. To date the only GRIZ proving to be a consistent offensive threat beyond those 2 is Anthony Johnson.

We have other potential scorers, but unfortunately they have yet to prove themselves.
CET- should not have to score, but I would challenge him to hit the 3.

Michael Taylor- Could be a good scorer, but does not get enough minutes to get in sync. His role is more of PG than scorer. Until he can prove he can provide fire off the bench, I too challenge him from 3.

McGillis- Has yet to find offensive consistency, and until he does let him have the 3. With that said though, when he breaks out, it will be BIG. Question is "when it will be, if ever?" Being McGillis is strong with hops, why not try him in the post on others 3's? He has a good inside game. Why relegate him to perimeter and penetrating?

Johnson- no need for him to shoot the 3, his penetrating and mid range jumper is deadly. Until others step up in scoring, he is seeing at least 25 minutes per game. I put my best shutdown guard on him.

Hasquet and Selvig- I love their overall games, but it really pisses me off we are not using them in the paint more. Qvale is not ready to do it on his own! Hate to say it, with this years roster both these guys belong inside the majority of time. I do not care if one is a SR, and the other is a highly touted young versatile 7 footer. They belong inside for size alone, and they both are great passers from inside too. As a coach I would not mind bigs going outside, but only if I have other established inside scorers (Davis and Strait)! I do not expect as much from Selvig, but am surprised Hasquet has not been more willing to be our inside scorer. I wonder if the coaches have mentioned this to him? I would think a SR would be willing to do any and everything for the betterment of his team in his final year. I will admit, I am very disappointed that Hasquet is not being utilized inside for reasons beyond me.

Sharp- GREAT attitude, hustle, and solid skills. Too bad he has the game of 6'9" plus guy, but is only 6'7" and not quick enough to be a 3.

Qvale- Great paint defender, solid rebounder, solid at times scorer, but just not ready yet to be the man inside on offense. However withi his attitude and willingness, he would be getting 30 plus minutes per game until Hasquet and/or Selvig stepped up their willingness to be inside scorers.

Stockton- too young without the minutes to know what he can do from the perimeter, but because of that I too leave him wide open for 3's until he proved me wrong.

Seriously though, for the above reasons Staudacher will have very inconsistent performances, not his fault, but the surrounding cast has not proven any consistency yet or are not willing to do what is necessary to support his perimeter game. I bet our bigs could average 6 assists per night just by establishing our inside scoring and kicking out to Stauds. He is every bit the shooter Reddick (sp?) from Duke was. Oh btw Stauds actually shoots within the offense and plays tough defense too.

I predicted Stauds would shoot 52% from 3 this year. Which he may exceed. However, for him to consistently score high and keep his pace, his teammates have to be more willing to fill roles. If that happens, we may witness one of the greatest 3 pt shooting years in NCAA history (yes he is that good)!

I am not worried about McGillis at all. He is the best athlete on the court 90% of the time. He is struggling, but we all know 19 of his best 20 Griz games are still to come. He has yet to steal an uncontested fast-break monster-slam,but he has been close many times. I think that might break the ice for him. Last night was so frustrating for him. He had way too much room for his own good. He is use to Pac-10 Defense and North Dakota was giving him a 5 foot cushion all night. When McGillis in on, he would light-up UND for 30+ every night. But he doesn't have his confidence yet to drain those uncontested 3's at will yet. He actually took 4!!!!!!!!! shots from one inch inside the 3-point line. That doesn't happen when he is on. He is so far away from his prime. He is rusty as hell, but he has already proven he can score against Pac-10 competition, so i agree, it's not a matter of if but when, and WHEN he finds it again, he'll never look back and should challenge Jordo for the go-to guy come season's end. This team has immense talent. They are only gonna get better for sure. AJ and McGillis have only shown glimpses of what will soon become routine for them.

i agree with Zirg regarding jack...He is going to break out soon..when that happens, watch out !

i also agree with mtgrizrule..if our coaches and bigs (kick outs) buy into stauds shooting talent
we could witness an absolute scarry, ncaa history breaking display of Pure shooting !

If the Griz put it all together...we could beat Portland state this month and make a big impact
on a great start in big sky play.

that is "if" we can put it all together.
