But now that you mention Vern at the charity stripe, it does make me wonder if someone can actually get docked points for atrocious FT shooting....though he has improved this year. 20-32 is much better than the 12-48 and 10-23 he posted when he played for Georgetown.

No. Just thought I'd get some Macklin stats out there since we haven't had a Macklin thread in a while (maybe a week).

I watched the game -- I think two or three of his baskets were dunks after offensive rebounds with nobody on him. I don't see that he's developed much with his back to the basket, although that's not completely surprising on a team that likes a more fast paced, open court style.
He's obviously still in development and might blossom his senior year. But Vernon is kidding himself if he really believes GU was the problem.

NBC4 in Washington showed a clip of Vernon finishing a fast break and making a layup while being fouled. Did not identify the game but identified Vernon as an ex-Hoya. After the foul he hit the floor but raised a fist as if to say "yeah, baby". Did not show the foul shot.

With his 3 FTM tonight, Vern has now made more free throws thus far this season than he did in two years at GU ... in 34 fewer attempts no less.

The free throw defense is stronger in the Big East.

Missed a chance to win the game today. Should have had an easy offensive rebound that he could've put back to win with 2 seconds left.

Yeah, all the focus down here was on a tough miss of a relatively easy shot by Tyus, but what jumped out at me was that Macklin crashed the boards too hard. He had position and could have held his ground and gone straight up, but instead he "rushed it" and the ball bounced over his head. Oh well, it was a tough loss for sure. I was still proud of the effort the guys put out though.

I lost the link, but for anyone interested, Macklin led the Gators in scoring on Saturday with 20 points. He played very well and was aggressive going againts Jarvis Varnado of Miss. St. Varnado is very likely to finish as the all-time NCAA career blocks leader. I think he needs about 25 more the rest of the season. In any case, Vern took the ball straight at him, and he couldn't have picked a better time to have a big game. Our starting backcourt, Kenny Boynton and Erving Walker were a combined 4 of 23 from the field. Also, Alex Tyus, who had averaged 19 points in conference games only scored 9 on 3 of 10 shooting. Without Macklin, Florida would have not only lost, but lost big time. Vern came out after halftime on fire scoring the Gators first 10 points of the second half, including a couple of thunderous dunks.

How do you lose the link? ESPN.com has boxscores for every college game.
I caught the second half of that game on CSS/SEC Network/JP Sports/whatever it's called these days. Macklin had a nice reverse dunk.

I thought I had copied the link and was going to paste it here, but when I tried to paste it, I didn't have it. No biggee ... I'm sure that if anyone wants it, they can get it at Gainesville.com

In all fairness Brasky, I don't really like the site either. I've said many times if it wasn't for Gator news, I would never buy a Gainesville Sun again. The paper sucks out loud and in its case, calling it a "mullet wrapper" is an insult to week old mullet.
