That's because they their players stay two years then go to The League, consistently. If you put their numbers at a "per-4 year" basis just like per 40 minutes, they would have some amazing numbers.

Yeah, maybe. Tough to say that too because there's so many options on a UNC team. Hersey, I imagine, was the number one scoring option for Bradley. On the other hand, a team with tons of talent like UNC doesn't have just one player who can rack up the points.
I don't know the other players well, but Oscar Robertson would probably be #1 if they counted his freshmen year. I believe in his time freshmen were on the JV team, and the points in the record books are only include varisty scores.

Save loyola basketball, shoot alfredrick hughes

Speaking of Alredrick Hughes at #10...............
Here's a good (and funny) article. Note how they mention his 1-21 shooting performance against Bradley at the end of the story
Anyone else remember that game? Worst shooting performance I've ever seen :lol:
http://vault.sportsillustrated.cnn.com/vault/article/magazine/MAG1119075/index.htm
From the story: "In that first year Hughes missed 13 of 17 shots in Loyola's one-point loss to Minnesota and followed that five games later with a stat-of-the-art effort against Bradley in which he missed 20 straight before finally stuffing a tomahawk jam on his final attempt of the evening. In the locker room afterward, as Battle apologized for missing but one of his nine shots, a chortling Hughes said, "You see me stick that last one?"

I understand what you are saying DC. But I don't know that it is fair to compare Snell and Stowell who only do BU and aren't traveling around the country doing different conferences and teams.
They are going to know more about BCS teams since they do more of their games than non-BCS.

but lefty, Snell and Stowell have busy lives doing many other things,
while the guys who do the games on ESPN are for the most part FULL TIME, highly paid TV announcers.
I think when they show the degree of ignorance that I also noted in this game, it is inexcusable.
Evansville's starting center is Pieter van Tongeren, who has started every game since his first game as a freshman, yet the announcers often didn't know who the guy was, repeatedly getting his name wrong.
They spent an inordinate amount of time dwelling on every tiny detail of the Hansbroughs and all their family members, so I guess maybe they completely ran out of time and couldn't review even the main facts about Evansville.

The color guy talked briefly about the valley, and he said how he was impressed with Wichita State when he saw them earlier in the year, and he said-
"and they were picked anywhere from 9th to 11th in the Missouri Valley"!
I looked, but I couldn't find anyone who picked them 11th.
Boy, you talk about a down year. Finishing 11th in a 10 team league would probably get a coach fired.:lol:

Aren't the Pistol's totals a 3 year period too? or am I wrong on that?
tornado
New member
yes they are just 3-year totals, pretty impressive, but he averaged 44 pts per game
"He is still the all-time leading NCAA Division I scorer with 3,667 points scored
and an average of 44.2 points per game. He accomplished this without the benefit of a three-point line and despite the fact that NCAA rules prohibited him
from playing on the varsity team as a freshman."

Ah, okay. didn't realize Maravich's scores were also only a three year period. Pretty scary then.

One other comment about Pistol Pete......
"Years later .........coach Dale Brown charted every college game Maravich played,
taking into consideration all shots he took. The coach calculated that at the NCAA rule
of a three-point line at 19-foot, 9-inches from the rim, Maravich would have averaged
thirteen 3-point scores per game, which would have given the player a career average of 57 points per game"
