Last year, Mike Brey's Fighting Irish had the No. 2 offense in America, with cornerstone seniors Jerian Grant and Pat Connaughton leading the way. Grant, a consensus first-team All-American, commanded the high-powered offense as a scoring point guard who made 57 percent of his 2s and led the ACC in assist rate, while Connaughton was one of four players on the ND roster who made better than 40 percent of his 3s.
