Arkansas Coach Mike Anderson says the Razorbacks are getting the right people shooting free throws late in games, but he admits it’s been puzzling watching the team’s best free-throw shooters struggle.

Arkansas Coach Mike Anderson says the Razorbacks are getting the right people shooting free throws late in games, but he admits it’s been puzzling watching the team’s best free-throw shooters struggle.

Arkansas’ best free-throw shooters among its eight healthy scholarship players are sophomore guard Mardracus Wade, junior guard Julysses Nobles and freshman guards BJ Young and Ky Madden.

Think maybe that legs are getting tired? Lack of full complement of scholarship players is taking a toll?

That's a real possibility, c1charlie. I was worried that this could really become a problem later in the season. MA's asking an awful lot from these young men but he has no option right now. Hopefully Gulley and Mitchell will give some sort of relief. Not only is our depth not there most of the players just coming out of high school are not used to the pace in college ball.

Just a note homer, I don't believe Gulley is eligible to play until early 2013.

I'm proud of these guys. There's a lot of fight in Coach A's pups.
