Thread: Bo Lamar NCAA greatness

  1. #1

    UL Basketball Bo Lamar NCAA greatness

    Sorry if there's already a Bo Lamar thread. Searched but couldn't find it.
    But anyway, what's the deal with him not being listed on the NCAA career scoring leader list?
    He's not on the Basketball Reference list or Wikipedia's. There's even a list of players that have scored 60 or more in a college game and he's not on that list either. What's even more strange is Wikipedia has two lists; one with 60 point games against division 1 opponents and a separate one against non-division 1 opponents. He's not on either list. However, he is listed on the list of players that have won scoring titles. So again, what's the deal?

    Strictly a guess, but maybe individual records not counted because of the death penalty. The wins vacated or given to the opponents.

    I believe it is because we did not transition to the D1 level until his Junior year. 1st 2 seasons were played at the college level. Someone who knows better can probaly give a better explanation.

    I'm sorry, but any time I see a thread that just has someone's name I think of someone leaving the program. Even Bo.

    Or they have passed away. That's what I thought.

    This is why they came by the thousands

    ‘Lamar was a three-time All-American in the late 1960s and early 1970s, and finished his collegiate career with an astonishing scoring average of 31.2 points per game, thanks in large part to his patented high-arching jump shot.’

    That was a nice walk through ncaa basketball history! I wish there were better video from the past.

    And, there was no 3 point shot in the late 1960 and early 1970s. Bo was fantastic and it was great to follow USL basketball back then.
