13th&Jackson Posted March 20, 2023 Report Share Posted March 20, 2023 Just now, rico said: Apparently they don't want to spend the money to keep the athletics? I know, but enrollment and tuition revenue is a big challenge for these small schools. Having the teams helps to recruit student/athletes who will then pay tuition. Some of those kids will select a school that recruits them for athletics, just because they don't want their athletic careers to end in high school. A lot of those D2 & D3 teams don't spend a lot on their athletic programs. They get donor support, don't pay their coaches a lot (some are part time) and travel in vans and buses. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just to think some of these various NCAA player’s records were made before the 3 pt shot. ….not that I believe this, but below is what someone calculated Pete’s numbers may be. Pretty lofty, but highly unlikely per game. If Pete Maravich played with the current 3 point line during college, he would have averaged 57 PPG.

Hum. The game and athleticism has changed tremendously. He did go on to score 24.2 points a game in the NBA against grown men over 12 years. If Steph can be as prolific, I'd buy that Pete could too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, after all the really ugly stuff directed toward Mike Davis, having people contact the CBI tourney to lobby against having Antoine break the record, I can see how it wouldn’t sit well.

Yeah I think he could play in today's game, but I don't have a problem saying he couldn't score 28.5 PPG if you transferred college Pistol Pete into today's game.

IF,…he played in the BIGTEN, all that most likely would have been talked about was that he was a good bench player, nice shooter and former IU head coach, Mile Davis’ son.

Not saying DM belonged in, but the same could be said for some of the other pay to play teams. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"The decision we made wasn't based purely on whether we wanted him to break the record or not."

I'd say cheated is a poor word choice. Maybe, hurt would have been better. He wasn't entitled to it and saying cheated sounds that way. If he had said hurt, it would have laid all the focus on these idiots that let that sway them in any way shape or form. But Louisiana, yikes, some of those people make UK fans look like movie stars and super models. Some straight line gene pools. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had 5 years to do what he did to break a record that took the leader 3. Should have played better in the last game. Shouldn't have been help to what like 4 points in the second half. Play better or accept you had your shot and came up short. Nothing wrong in being number 2 for along time most likley 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a clown...cheated because your 14-18 team didn't get invited to a tourney...they shouldn't have been invited....also I agree be humble and glad to be number 2...you make these comments an people dig into the stats and it makes you look even worse.

There are a lot of things that go into it, scoring in the NBA right now is about as good as we've seen but college is lagging. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
