They need to each shoot 1,000 free throws a day for each one they miss in game.

Maybe the women's team could give them FT shooting lessons.
Maybe not. Including yesterday's game, the cumulative season FT stats:

Men: 108 for 155 = 69.7%
Women: 90 for 128 = 70.3%
 
Ya know, guys, you gotta put foul shooting in perspective. Over the 8 games they've played, they had 2 games where foul shooting sucked big time. Vs Hartford, they shot 8/14 for 57.1%. Last night, they shot 13/24 for 54.2%. For all the other games combined, they were 87 for 117 - 74.4%, which is damn good. Sometimes you have a bad night. Sometimes you find a bad rim. Sometimes the wrong people get fouled. Overall, for the year they are at a shade under 70%. I'd like to see a consistent 72-74% too, but it's not like they are totally worthless at the line. You can't use one game to say the whole season sucked.
 
I need some memory help. Would someone who is knowledgeable please explain again the free throw drills used by Calhoun, Glenn Miller and Steve Nash which Uconn apparently used to great effect in the past? It looks like we sure need some help.

Among the FT drills that Glenn used during the 2014 season was the drill known as the Steve Nash Drill

Steve was commonly recognized as one of the best FT shooters in the NBA during his playing years and attributed his FT proficiency..in part.. To using certain drills to improve his FT accuracy..
