CHAMP WEEK

I am glad he didn't break the record, but that is truly awful for him to come that close, and no cigar.
I wouldn't bet against it. Those crap tourney's could make up crap about how well they were playing in the tourney and give them a bid. Publicity, Publicity, Publicity. I hope you are right though.
Not sad. Career 41% shooter should not hold the college all time points record.
I'm actually going to put a TU spin on this and say our Anthony Pritchard kept him from breaking the record by holding him to a low 23 points here and even kept him from being the high scorer that night.
Well he holds the single season record I believe that was held by Steph curry. He only needed 7 points for that. I need to research that
Maravich shot a whole bunch more shots than Davis at 43.8%. No three pt line was a major disadvantage for maravich.(or advantage for davis depending on how you want to look at it)
Looked like Pete's family was cheering him on. To me that is the only family's feelings that matter.

So I found the story again. and he fell short of it as well. Going into the game he could have passed Steph Curry for the 3 point season leader. Davis made 159 Three Pointers this season, which is 3 shy of the record Curry set in the 2007-2008 season. Being cold in this game just killed it for him.
Right now he is the Career Leader in 3 pointers made at 588.

So you’re saying we could make a post season tournament after all????
VMI(16-16) & Rice(16-17) got into the cbi last year. The one and only Detroit Mercy(14-15), Morgan St,(13-14) & USC Upstate played in the Erace tourney last year.(formerly CIT)
But the one and only proof that Detroit Mercy has a chance of a 'bid' is Maryland Eastern Shore(11-15) in the Erace tourney last year.
If they let in Maryland Eastern Shore at 11-15, then I can easily see them letting in Detroit Mercy at 14-19 with Davis breaking the record on his 4th point.(Heck they might even let em in for free to get the pub.)

Yes Virginia, their could be a loca2874 Christmas in March where he breaks all those records in the CIT.
Surely he can get 4 pts and 4 3ptr if he get's the bid.
He's only missed the mark on 4 3ptr or more, in a third of his games this year. That gives him a 66% chance if he gets a CIT/CBI bid. I say if he get's the bid, only because Detroit Mercy wouldn't be getting that bid alone.
He doesn't deserve those records, but there's a chance.

I was thinking this. Detroit Mercy might also pay their way in so the kid can break the record and the school can get the positive publicity that goes with that...and it's publicity beyond athletics.
I was gonna say Absmas could technically come back another year and I wonder how close he would come to Maravich and Davis if he did. The answer is, he wouldn't He's about 1200 pts behind them and his highest scoring total in a season (so far) is 685. Maravich was scoring 1100+ pts per season in 5-8 fewer games per season. Davis has scored 930 pts this season and he had 2 seasons of 700+ pts and one that was 6 pts shy of 700. His lowest was 529 in a COVID shortened 22 games season 2020-2021.
I'm sure Absmas will put the feelers out there for the pro's but if some team wants to stick him in the G-League for $700/wk, he's probably better off staying at ORU.
Yeah I'd already thought about the school finding it worth it to pay in for the pub. It would be 50k well spent by them. And they might be able to find a booster(group) to pay part or all of the 50k.
You just spoke it into existence. Christmas in March.
My birthday is in the middle of March. I’d always assumed “March Madness” was in honor of my birthday. If we want to add Christmas to the mix I’ve got no objections!!
If he does break Maravich’s record, it should have an asterisk and an explanation for why the abomination was included in the list.
The kid is a scoring machine and deserves some recognition. Said before I prefer Maravich record stands but I don't really favor conditional records.
If the situation is really that different by eras just keep records by era. That seems better than diminishing someone's accomplishment.

The reason I asked is those are possible Christmas dates in March.(1st round of CBI Mar 19th & 20th. 1st Round of CIT 14th & 15th.)
Mine's in late March.
I'm hoping to have a real Christmas in March, and us get some juco recruits on my birthday.(I'll take an early Christmas/Birthday gift too, no problem with that.)
