A New Challenger to Syracuse's Free Throw Record

Syracuse's new center William Kyle has shown himself to be a high energy player and terrific defender early in the season. He will be extremely valuable to the Orange, assuming they can keep him on the court. Why would they remove him? During the two exhibition games Kyle showed one of the worst free shooting forms in college basketball. He made only 17 of 43 free throws last season at UCLA, for 39.5%. He was better at South Dakota State prior to being at UCLA, but that is all relative; his career free throw shooting before coming to Syracuse was 56.
