The Wiz Posted January 1, 2023 Author Share Posted January 1, 2023 Yuri has 15 assists and 1 TO in the St. J game. As I have to work on the numbers for the UMass game, possibly someone with good math skills can work on what the assist / turnover ratio was for Yuri in the St. J game. Yuri's 15 has pushed him up to 703. He has moved up 18 spots to #85. He is only the 5th A-10 player to reach the 700 club. Tied... Kyle Collinsworth....2011-16...Brigham Young Passed...

Yuri assists.....Chance to win 4 ..........................20% 5............................30% 6.............................40% 7..............................50% 8.............................60% 9.............................70% 10............................80% Yuri now has logged 10 assists twice, against SIUE and UMass. We all know the results. I'm tending not to believe that we have an 80% chance to win when Collins has 10 assists. Maybe it's just me but I'd like to be proven wrong in any upcoming game. slufan13 likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our defense kind of sucks which is the primary reason we lost both games. Both losses happened to be on Wednesdays. It does not mean we have a worse chance of winning games on Wednesdays.

I'd say there's a lot more to say about Okoro's 5 turnovers in last night's loss than in Yuri's 10 assists. Maybe The Wiz's computer should've clarified that factor is when the other 20% comes into play. AGB91 likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dlarry Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 Yuri had a great offensive game last night. Defensively is another story. People complaining about Yuri on the offensive end last night have turned him into a scapegoat for everything that is wrong with this team. He wasn’t the problem last night. Okoro and Jimerson were the main problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it is you and I would be happy to prove you wrong. You seem to be a good numbers guy so you know that it is never a good idea to use a sample size of 2. So I ran the numbers for this season and last year. There have been 17 games where Yuri has had 10 assists or more...We are 14-3 in those games...82.4%. I give a thumbs up to the computer. By the way, I enjoy reading some of your stat posts. Good stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good stuff. The numbers don’t lie… So can the magic computer come up with some stats on how bad our defense is this year? How many times our opponents scored more than their season average when they played SLU? How does their slash line compare between their season averages and what they get when they play SLU?

You can get some of that info from the spread threads....pre and post game. I could post all the info but I don't want to make a 5 page report nor make this a full time job.

At his current rate of 10.8 APG and at least 16 games remaining on the schedule, Yuri is on pace to finish this year (assuming no decline of that average and no more than 16 games played) with 899.8 assists, moving him to 16th on the all-time list and just 3 assists behind the two players tied for 15th with 902. Regardless of how this season shapes out you owe it to yourself as a "Billiken fan" to enjoy the hell out of this show that we're watching because we most certainly will never see it on our court in our uniform again.

slufanskip Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 In the last 30 years only 2 players have finished a season with 10+ assists. No one has had 10+ assists and an assist/to rate of over 3.0 Nelson Haggarty 94-95 season 10.14/3.6 = 2.81 rate Ja Morant 18-19 season 10.03/5.2 = 1.92 rate Yuri Collins so far this year 10.81/3.4 = 3.17 rate Not bad for a turnover machine. If his numbers continue and I’ll admit it’s tougher in conference but if they do his assists per game and assist/to rate will be the best in over 30 years.

Bills By 40 Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 Another fun discovery to add to Yuri's resume this year: His 3.1 A/TO ratio is good for 15th in the nation. Of everyone ranked ahead of him in that metric he is averaging no less than 2.8 more assists/game, and as many as 7.8 more assist/game. On the assist/game list, 2nd place Markquis Nowell of Kansas State is tied with Yuri's 3.1 A/TO ratio but is a full 2 assists/game behind him on the leaderboard. Third place Tyler Kolek from Marquette is beating Yuri with a 3.6 A/TO ratio but is a full 2.8 assists/game behind him. Fourth place Jalen Pickett is ahead of all the pack here with a 3.77 A/TO ratio but, as you'll see with the pattern here, is a whopping 3.5 assists/game behind Yuri. Of the rest of the Top 10 assists/game leaders only one is in the top 10 for A/TO ratio, one other is in the top 25, two others are in the top 50, and two do not appear in the top 50 at all. Yuri Collins is really f*cking good. SLUMedBilliken15, BrettJollyComedyHour, RiseOfTheBillikens and 1 other like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yuri is an all-time great point guard. Yuri's average rose slightly to 10.9/game after last night. That adjustment made to the calculations above (15 remaining games) would put Yuri at 903 assists on the year, in sole position of 14th all time and 31 assists behind Gary Payton at 12th / 47 assists behind Greg Anthony in the 10th spot.
