Ya know that "this recruit should be a 20/10 guy" sort of talk?

It's one of my pet peeves, when fans start talking about a recruits potential.  Or even worse, the "bad coaching" or the "lack of effort on the Kids part" if they're NOT.

So here's a little quiz, using the Stats page from NCAA D-1's official page:

There are 5,000+ D-1 basketball players this season - 4,400+ scholarship players.   

(A) How many average 20 or more points?
(B) How many average 10 rebounds?
(C) How many average 20pts and 10 rebs?    Scroll Down for the answers.








A)  There are SEVENTEEN 20 pt scorers in Division 1
B)  There are TWENTYONE 10 rebound guys in Division 1
C)  There is ONE 20/10 guy in Division 1 - Kevin Jones of West Virginia.  That's IT.

If you remember that season like 3 of his rebounds per game where off his own missed chippies.  Stats lie in this case

R U sure it was only 3

From that 11 win team did anyone deserve credit?

Most (or at the very least, some) of the people who use the phrase "20 and 10 guy" to describe a player are probably talking about the players ability to score 20 and 10 on any given night, not to average 20 and 10 over the course of the season. those are mike beasley or kevin durant type numbers. But a much larger portion of ncaa players have the ability to drop 20 and 10 on any given night. Dj could have, burrell could have, brownlee could have, moe can and so can a couple other guys on the team.
