I guess it should really be &#8220;Under the Radar&#8221; then, but I&#8217;m not going to change. Today&#8217;s team is Troy St. who has a respectable loss to LSU and wins over San Diego St. and Oakwood College (who I think is NAIA).  What&#8217;s cool about the men of Troy is that not only have they shot more 3&#8217;s than 2&#8217;s this year, which is rare in itself, but they are almost shooting better from 3 (51% from 2, 47% from 3). So they are getting almost a point a half on every three point attempt, compared with about one point on 2&#8217;s. Even if you consider the extra points that come with 2&#8217;s in the form of trips to the line, there is no way their 2 point production is close to their 3 point production. This suggests that Troy isn&#8217;t shooting <em>enough<\/em> 3&#8217;s. Their schedule is pathetic the rest of the way, what with the Atlantic Sun making their members play 20 conference games, so don&#8217;t be looking for them on the tube anytime soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is my new feature &#8220;On the Radar&#8221; where I profile a good team that the cool people aren&#8217;t talking about.
