Adding up Pistol Pete's stats. 4,452 pts scored while attending LSU.

you can't retroactively go back when he only played against other fr

So tired of hearing about this stupid arse Pistol/Clark comparison.

It's a discussion for people that lack myelin in their brain.

I wonder if we can get AI to do a layover on every single one of PM's shots and determine which ones would've been considered 3 point shots.

Here's the real question: Who would you rather watch play a basketball game? End of story..... and for the record Pistol Pete was my idol on the basketball court growing up. Everyone likes to talk points but he was a magician w the basketball in his hands. Incredible entertainment. We all have heard the stories where the crowds were packed for the freshman game and then everyone would leave b/f the varsity took the court when Pete was a freshman. It's true!

Just as good a person as his game was, his wife was awesome

Dale Brown on Pistol Pete:

“If there was a 3-point line, I think he (would have had) nine points more per game just by the shots he took where he took them," Brown said, referencing a study on Maravich's shot distribution from former LSU reporter at The Advocate Sam King. "... And if he would have known there was a 3-point shot, or if there was a shot clock that would have sped things up, his record would have been totally impossible (to break). Houdini couldn't break his record."

Maravich also accomplished both feats without ever playing in an NCAA Tournament game – the field was significantly smaller in those days – or in an SEC Tournament game, as that event didn't exist when he played. Maravich did play in the NIT as a senior, but he also participated in fewer regular-season games (26) than what modern college teams play today.
