Title: Fun MU fact
Post by: CAGASS24 on March 17, 2018, 03:22:24 PM
had one player lead the nation in 3pt fg% last year - had a different player at no 2 nationally this year in 3pt fg% - and had a 3rd player lead the big east in conference only games in 3pt fg% at 57 percent (though not enough attempts to show up on the stat list) - and NONE of those 3 players is rowsey - who averaged 3.4 makes a game and led the conference in that category - unreal

Howard, Hauser, Cain.   But only two of them are shooters.

the fun fact could end up being that Howard after leading the country in 3 point field goal percentage last year may end up leading the country in free throw percentage this year. He was second during regular season and he may actually be leading now, if they add in the tournament results.

Currently, Markus is listed as #1.

I found this in the NCAA Statistics Policies and Guidelines:

"POSTSEASON RECORDS AND STATISTICS
Postseason contests including conference and/or NCAA tournaments, or bowl games in football, shall be included in the official records and statistics for all sports.
"

http://fs.ncaa.org/Docs/stats/ForSIDs/Policies.pdf

And the updated stats confirm that the NIT counts, because as of yesterday, Markus is #1.  Although the stats look like a tie (he and Darnell Edge from FDU are both listed at 94.4%), Markus is listed first because his is actually .9444 and Edge is .9438.

If BeeJay wins this plaque at next year's Blue & Gold Silent Auction like he did Markus' 3 PT award, we will officially know #ftsmatta

I assume you're referring to the experts on this board that don't think Cain is a shooter

That was my assumption as well.
