Jay Bilas's top 3 point shooter all time NCAA

[Lakeview Brave]

Likely,

Because Jennings didnt play in a BCS conference, didnt really get any run in the association, isnt a current head coach or doesnt pull paychecks from ESPN, Bilas isnt going to know or have any reason to include Keith Jennings.

Same with Hawkins, no way no how guys like Tony Bennett, Keith Veney(Nike NBA rep), Lee Humphrey(Florida), Curtis Staples(Virginia), heck pretty much from number 10 on down were or are better 3 point shooters then Hawkins. And that includes the inclusion of Legler... Ill take Hawkins today in a shoot off with that talking head anyday... actually Im shocked Bilas didnt include Doug Gottlieb or Greg Anthony in this list.

The list is without any merit, without the inclusion of Hawkins.

I agree about Bilas and the BCS but Hawk only shot threes for two years and only shot very well for one of them. Which player should he be listed over if you only talk about shooting threes?

Lakeview I would take Hawkins over every player that Bilas lists from number 10 through number 25. Even if he played only 2 years with the 3 he was a better 3 point shooter then all of those players listed from 10-25.

If we use years played with the 3 point line as a determining factor then Reggie Miller should not be on this list as he only played with the 3 for one year.

Also, if my memory serves me the 3 pt line was different distances the two years, I think it might have been a bit further out the first season.

He should be on that list, regardless of how many years in college he played with the 3 point line.

THREE POINT TRIVIA QUESTION!!!

Name the most recent Bradley player to have been perfect (1.000 shooting pct) on THREE POINTERS
for the entirety of his Bradley Basketball career??

(ps-- 0 for 0 is not 1.000)

also...as a side question, what was Brandyn Heemskerk's 3-point shooting stats for the 5 years that he played?? (one year was a redshirt year but he still had stats that year)


ANSWERS IMMEDIATELY BELOW this line-- mouse over to read...

Zach Andrews was 1 for 1 on 3 pointers in 2004-2005 and 0-0 in 2005-2006,
so his career 3-pt shooting numbers are 1-1 and 1.000.
Brandyn Heemskerk never attempted a 3-pointer in those five years, so he was 0-0, .000.

Matt Salley - oops.... guess I am wrong. I coulda sworn I saw him drain one once this past season and it was his only attempt. LOL - oh well.

Or wait... am I right?

Matt made a few attempts at 3 pointers. I recall when he first joined the team two years ago, he took several shots behind the arc.

Then he learned his role and rarely took a 3 pointer. I don't know. Maybe some outside shooting used to be more part of his game before Bradley.

Hawk was a scorer...not just a 3 point gunner that many of these guys are. Hawk also played defense and handled the ball on occasion.

Had Hawk just sat back and launched threes BU would not have been as good allthough Hawk MIGHT have been on this list. I'll take what he gave us over being considered a deadeye 3 pt shooter anyday.

Great post DRU. That sums up the Hawk perfectly.
