Oh, I’m so sorry I didn’t read every thread on this forum and violated your copyright on this topic. I’ll delete mine. And to be fair, I’ll donate the proceeds from my post to a charity.Wow. Did not know any of that!
And there are 16 reg season games left, not 14
I thought the thread title might have stood out to you
And as you can see, we have been doing a countdown since Nov 25
No, it didn’t. And so what? Do you have a monopoly on this topic? Grow up.I thought the thread title might have stood out to you

Not sure if this is covered elsewhere but JBO is now in 9th place for made 3P. in the Big Ten. He's making 2.4 per game and with 16 games left, he would add 38 more 3P and finish with 348 made and be in 2nd place.

i really thought he had a chance to break the record. oh well. i will still take a B1G title & national championship
Luka is a lock to end his career as the #1 all-time scorer in Iowa history. (As long as he stays healthy)
Well if he takes a 6th year...i really thought he had a chance to break the record. oh well. i will still take a B1G title & national championship
256 divided by 16 equals 16 points per game. Sorry, I thought we were still talking about Luka.i really thought he had a chance to break the record. oh well. i will still take a B1G title & national championship
Vallholl above was discussing JBo's scoring (he's currently 18th on the Iowa All Time List, of course) & how he is also in 9th place for made 3 pointers in the Big Ten.
Luka needs to average 15.4 for the remaining regular season games to take over 1st place
Great column by Chad on Roy's record that has stood for 32 years.
As we have been discussing since Nov 25, the start of the season:
If there are no covid or injury issues, expect the all time scoring record to fall sometime between Feb 7 and Feb 18. See upcoming schedule at end of this post.
Upcoming Scheduled Games:
Jan 14 vs Mich State
Jan 18 at Northwestern
Jan 21 vs Indiana
Jan 24 vs Nebby
Jan 29 at Illinois
Feb 4 vs Ohio State
Feb 7 at Indiana
Feb 10 vs Rutgers
Feb 13 at Mich State

JBo still does have a solid chance. His 3pt made per game has been insane the past 4 games or so, much higher than his season average. It's doubtful he'll keep that pace up but he will average more 3's per game than he did the first month of the season. If Iowa doesn't have games/BT tournament cancelled, and they go somewhat deep in both tournaments, then he would only need to average around 3 per game (I did some quick math) to break the all time Big Ten record. A lot has to go right, but it would not be a crazy possibility.i really thought he had a chance to break the record. oh well. i will still take a B1G title & national championship

@perryhawk @Suterman @Ronman & others, do you remember John Johnson playing for the Hawks? Check out Scott's tweet at the end. Crazy how good John was in his short 2 years (and just 49 games!) in Iowa City.
John Johnson...1,172 (2 yrs: 1969-1970, 49 GP, .543 FG%,, 23.9 ppg)
Luka Garza...1,918 (4 yrs: 2018-2021, 109 GP, .556 FG%, 17.6 ppg; 98 three pt goals)
John Johnson...1,172 (2 yrs: 1969-1970, 49 GP, .543 FG%,, 23.9 ppg)
Luka Garza...1,918 (4 yrs: 2018-2021, 109 GP, .556 FG%, 17.6 ppg; 98 three pt goals)
He was before my time.......but those are astounding numbers for 2 years...with a high FG percentage.
I loved John Johnson. He was terrific, a prolific scorer, and had the flattest jump shot I can ever remember.
and he was part of the 1970 team that went 14-0 n conference play, correct?
That is correct. I believe he still has the 2 highest scoring games in Iowa history. Both in the 40's. Luka may do that again this year.
Yes, he and downtown Freddy lighting it up from outside.......averaged over 100pts per game in the BIg that year...
I can only imagine what John Johnson's and Freddy Brown's scoring averages might have been had there been a 3 point shot & a shot clock.
with no shot clock back then, did opponents ever attempt to stall to keep the score down?
They were all juniors and seniors they were playing to. If we did that these days their would be more competition yet in the big 10. Maryland would be really good with the guys that jumped to the pros the last two years.
The answer to that, I think, is about 10 years later the 4 corners stall tactic was invented. You had some half time scores of 6-4, 10-7, 13-11 etc. Not long after that development the shot clock came about and not too soon.
Dean Smith was famous for it but I remember Bobby Knight getting a lead and stalling, too. As an Iowa fan, you simply feared to get behind because it not only was boring to watch, you pretty much knew the outcome.
I did a quick search to remind me of this: The NCAA introduced the 45-second shot for the 1985–86 season; several conferences had experimented with it for the two seasons prior. It was reduced to 35 seconds in the 1993–94 season, and 30 seconds in the 2015–16 season.
The 3 point shot came one year later, in the 1986-87 season.
Now we just need a 4 point shot for players like JBo. 😏
Another interesting tid bit as Luka climbs to #1 on the overall All Time Scoring List:
Garza has scored an Iowa All Time Record 1,116 points in regular season Big Ten games.

Some interesting tidbits heading into Jan 17's Northwestern game:
Luka is one of only two players in the country (Notre Dame’s Nate Laszewski) to shoot at least 60% on FGAs and 48% on 3FGAs, with at least 20 made 3-pointers; Garza has more than double the field goals made and attempted as Laszewski.
Luka reached the 30-point plateau SIX times this season. No other player in Division I has more than three such games this season. Garza has topped 30 points 11 career times, second most in program history trailing only John Johnson (13). Garza has topped 20 points 11 times this season and 48 times in his career.
Garza scored 44 points at Michigan (Dec. 7, 2019) and 41 points versus Southern University (Nov. 27, 2020). He is one of two players in program history to score 40 points or more in two games in a career (John Johnson, 49 and 46).

You're right. Over the last 4 games, JBo is averaging close to FIVE 3 pointers per game. Hopefully we will get all 14 remaining reg season games in. And it sounds like there will be a Big 10 Tournament, which is hopefully 2 or 3 more games.
Anybody think he scores 200 today and becomes Iowa’s all time scoring leader !
correct me if I am wrong, but I believe Aaron White has played in more games than anyone in program history (140).
JBo is at 125.
