*** Official West Virginia vs #3 IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

We are at the point where our AA candidate is in single digits late, a starting guard has no points and we’re still rolling a conference opponent.

Nurse’s second year he shot 42%.

Hoibergs best was 45%.
Sullivan’s 47% (low 40s for his career).
McGee’s senior year 49%
Williughbys senior year 45%

I’m not sure people totally understand how rare it is to be above 50%

Another thing is the the line was closer to the basket for these guys. It is tougher now.

 

[twincyties]

Yeah I was deep diving our guys stats a few weeks ago. Better than 43% is very rare. Way more guys putting up 39-42% seasons or stringing together a career of them.

I’d love him to stay at 55%, but anywhere near 50% is sick given level of competition.

Not that it really matters but didn’t the three point line move back after some of the aforementioned players?

Good point to be

 

[ClonerJams]

Dammit someone get Jefferson that assist

 

[cycloneworld]

I find myself easily distracted or zoning out of games like this, just because I have no doubt in the outcome.

Otz has spoiled us.

These are the games I love watching. No stress.

Love that our entire crowd knows JJ needs one more dime for a triple double

"The NCAA adopted the three-point line in the 1986-87 season, initially at 19 feet, 9 inches, after several conferences experimented with it, with the Southern Conference being first in 1980-81. It was moved back to 20 feet, 9 inches for the 2008-09 season and then to its current distance of 22 feet, 1 ¾ inches (international distance) for the 2019-20 men's season and 2021-22 women's season, significantly impacting spacing and strategy."

We are at the point where we’re playing games to get JJ the triple-double in a conference game.

“ISU has unintelligent fans”

[Pizzapitter]

If he gets the triple-double.
Post game interview. "Joshua, how do you feel about getting a triple-double?"
Joshua. "I wasn't aware," minus a smile.

We'll have to see where he ends up at the end of the year. I hope he ends up at 60%.

[dafarmer]

They didn’t even have 3s when he played

Duh! If there was Barry would be on it.

 

[CloniesForLife]

Been really fun watching the rise of Batemon he has really come a long way and is becoming a beast on defense.

Toure has hit a bit of a slump but hope he can work through it quickly
