Redbirds look to score more with 3-ball

ISU hasn't come close to that total since and won't approach it this season. Not even close. Last year's national champion, Villanova, paced the country at 86.6.

Yet seventh-year Redbird coach Dan Muller expects his team to exceed last season's 71.6 scoring mark when the regular season begins at 6 p.m. Tuesday against Florida Gulf Coast at Redbird Arena.

"I would be very surprised if we did not," said Muller. "We won't have three above 15 like last year because we'll spread it out more. William Tinsley is way more capable of scoring more this year consistently.
