Trivia Question #2

[Phantom Warrior]

I'd like to post one trivia question per day for awhile, just to see how it goes. The fact that we got to Page 3 on the first question seems to indicate there might be some interest.

So, here is Trivia Question #2.

In the last 42 years only four true freshmen averaged even 5.0 rpg, and only one averaged over 6.0 rpg his freshmen year. Who were the four, and which one managed to average more than 6.0 rpg his freshman year? (I think two of the four will be pretty easy to guess and one of the four will be pretty tough to guess.)

By the way, I have to admit I am pretty surprised that only four frosh averaged as many as 5.0 rpg their first year. That seems like a rather modest number, but I guess it's not.

[IWB]

McIllvaine, Key, Ellis, Copa

[Phantom Warrior]

Give that man two (Bo and Damon) out of four. Who was over 6.0 rpg?

[Goose85]

I would have guessed Bo and Copa from IWB's list. Mac was a shot blocker and they tend not to get as many boards.

I'll add Vic Lazzareti and Trevor Powell.

[Phantom Warrior]

Bingo for Trevor (6.0 rpg) but not for Vic.

One more to go - the one I thought would be hard to figure.

[WarriorFan]

I'll go with a guard..Michael Wilson or Tony Miller.

[MayorBeluga]

OK, so this one really is Rod Grosse, right?

[Phantom Warrior]

Nope, not Miller, not Wilson, not Grosse.

[Goose85]

How about Earl Tatum?

Earl barely played as a freshman.
