Sometimes there are key moments in a game, like when you have a guard at the line to push a lead further... When they shoot fts as bad as your 6-8 power forwards in the clutch, you are asking to lose.

Quarterman shot FTs like shaq , in a big moment in the Auburn game, and now the NC State game, and we paid for it.

Guards are supposed to knock down FTs

quarterman was not perfect but he did a lot of good to outweigh the bad

he was the ONLY guy who could initiate an offense or find open looks

In years where you win NCAA games, your guards make FTs. In years they don't, you lose. My point is, coaches (even the great ones) are hit and miss on recruiting mental toughness. You just can't identify it in college. All you can do is recruit the best talent you can, but that doesn't always mean they will be "winners" in the college game.
