Countdown to Tipoff: Expect the Jackets to Shoot More Threes in 18’-19’

Tech fans would have to go all the way back to the 2010-2011 season to find a year where Georgia Tech ranked inside the top half of the country in three point attempts. That season, they were ranked 68th, attempting nearly 21 long balls per game. Since then, the Jackets have not finished a season ranked higher than 186th in three point attempts. Even in 2015-2016, a team that featured possibly the nation’s top three point specialist in Adam Smith, Tech still came in outside the top 300 in attempts behind the arc. Under Josh Pastner, the Jackets have only gotten more shy from the three point line, finishing almost dead last both seasons (348th and 340th).
