Looks like you're right. BIG EAST has 15 guys alone shooting over 40%.

Should've beaten PC. They've shocked me this season.
I think the issue is that if you go on ESPN.com and sort by national leaders in three point percentage, it does only list 135 players shooting 35% BUT they are only listing players who take at least 5 threes per game (and Ahamad Bynum who is taking 4.4 but maybe they included him because he's shooting such a high percentage??). Only 2 of the Depaul players shoot above 35% and take at least five threes per game. Deivon, Brady, Simeon all above 35% for us but on ESPN's list.
It's funny I was explaining this to my wife and could not believe it was true.
I have said this before by my DePaul writer friend thinks they are way better than anticipated and could be .500 on the season. So tomorrow if we win close, don't be too upset. But let's blow them out.
The only teams in the BE we can afford to lose to this year are , Marquette, UCONN and split with Xavier and Creighton .
As a minimum , we should win 1 of 4 against the top 2 and 2 of 4 would be ideal .
No losses to any of the other BE teams .

We will inevitably lose a game to one of the other Big East teams - they are not pushovers. Go 14-6 and split with UCONN, Marquette & Creighton and we dance easily so long as we don't get shocked by the Blue Hens lol.

When the fans are whipping those towels around, it will be the closest thing you’ll get to AC at Carnesecca
More for the aesthetic look when hopefully the crowd are waving the towels.
I get it but the white out game at MSG with Creighton worked because everyone was wearing white!
Fans were given the heads up to wear black, hopefully they follow suit.
I will wear my black ... suit then.
The better aesthetic would be everyone wearing black IMO
Hopefully that’s a given.

this... Everyone here should understand and digest this.... We Will Lose a game we "shouldn't". It's going to happen. This is the Big East- players are Good. Even though they didnt perform as they should have in the OOC... on any given night, we can lose, and we will.
Doesn't mean we don't dance... doesnt mean we won't get 14 Conf wins... doesn't mean the team stinks... Losses happen.
Enjoy the season fellas
