NIU Huskies
Leading scorer:
Eugene German, #10, 6-0 PG.
18-19 Stats: (http://barttorvik.com/team.php?year=...thern+Illinois)
- Usage=98th%ile (This means he was used more than 98% of all D1 players)
- EFG%=58.2 - very good.
- 3pt%=0.414 - very good and he took 203 shots last year. He went 3-6 Tuesday night with the new 3pt line against D2 comp.
Bart Torvik lists a stat called “PRPG” (“PORPAGATU!”) It is an estimation of the amount of points a player scores per game above what a typical D1 player would score. German’s is 4.9 (99.1%ile)
Bottom line is that Eugene German is the guy about whom NIU fans will say, “You didn’t beat us; So-and-so just had a bad game.”
The other two leading scorers from 18-19 have graduated.
Next is James Lacey. 6-9, 240 Forward. He’s the tallest Husky. But he went 1-6 and 0-1 from 3pt against their D2 opponent.
Interestingly, we have seen their guard Darius Beane before. He played last year for the SIU Salukis. He played 27 minutes and scored 16 on us in Carbondale. In Cedar Falls, he played 26 minutes and scored 2. He is the brother of Anthony.
---------------------------
Might be fun to count the instances of NUI, UNI, NIU confusion. They have similar complaints.
