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

Records in popular culture are based on totals.

Except baseball and football scoring hasn't changed. A run is still 1. the strike zone is the strike zone. A TD is still 6 points. A FG is still 3. But basketball instituted the shot clock and the 3 point line. So you are comparing 3 years to 4 years and 2 pointers to 3 pointers. So FACTUALLY Pete's record can't be broken. They can pretend it was. But it wasn't unless you just count 3 years and you only count 2 pt shots. With the 3 and with the current shot clock Pete probably averages 60 ppg.
