Cowboy Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 sorry flew through it this morning when i had some downtime. i'll update after the ISU game. -other than adding Littlebill is there a reason to update again until the season ends? I thought the rest of the questions were based on the full season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the rest of the questions were based on the full season. they are, but i have it set up so that it automatically recalculates after every game. just so people can see standings as if the season ended today. so really aren't applicable yet, but just fun to keep track of.

hsmith19 Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 The three-point question is intriguing to me. May be a lot closer all year than most were expecting. So far McBroom has 10, and the rest of the team (minus Yacoubou's 1) has barely matched McBroom on his own. I hope I am wrong here, as I would like to see guys like Crawford/Lancona/Roby/Reynolds all attempting more, but I will stand behind my prediction that McBroom and Yacoubou finish with more.

slufan13 Posted November 26, 2014 Author Share Posted November 26, 2014 Will update this before the Miss St game. Agree that the 3 point question is very interesting and it looks like the Rams and Billikens very well could end up tied. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigMouthBilliken Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Update Interesting to see that ONLY moytoy picked McBroom to be the leading scorer. Perhaps the perception of AY as a dominant scorer was an overestimation? I hope he is able to finish those drives to the basket and sink those 3's as the season progresses.

Quality Is Job 1 Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 I was tempted to go with McBroom, but chickened out. The season is still young. Four years ago Kyle Cassity was the leading scorer at a similar early juncture, but he didn't finish the season as the Billikens' leading scorer.

hsmith19 Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Yes, the season is young. But I expected (and still expect) the two to be very close in scoring all year. To be decent this year and good next year, we need Yacoubou to break out in a big way, but McBroom is a known quantity as far as his ability to score on a per-minute basis. One thing I am confident of is that between the two of them, we will not end up with an oddity on par with freshman Mike McCall ending up as the leading scorer at less than 10...

This is just a quibble, but in 2010-11, McCall was over 10.0 per game in scoring. (10.4) (Hey, Steve, did you know there are no stats on the main page for 1995-96?)

hsmith19 Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Weird, for some reason the number 9.7 sticks out in my head for McCall that year. As for McBroom, I still think he will end up the best three point shooter Majerus recruited here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slufan13 Posted January 2, 2015 Author Share Posted January 2, 2015 November and December are actually tied for wins right now, so add 1 to your score if you have November listed as your prediction. I'll update my formula to include both eventually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NextYearBill Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 just occurred to me that John Manning will not go down as the winning-est player in Billiken History. He needed 13 wins this season. that worked out well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
