Horizon League Power Poll

HC, during the Oppland, Berdiel, Huff, Haanpaa, Loyd years in the last years of the Mid-Con and into the HL, weren't we commonly shooting 25 3s a game then? We were living and dying by the 3 often in those years, if I remember correctly.

[HC]

That's why I'm asking, maybe it's not absurd? Comparatively, Valpo is attempting right around 19 a game.

[agibson]

2007-08 was high, at 23.8 threes attempted per game.  I guess that was Huff, Haanpaa, and Loyd's last year?

Aside from that outlier, we've been pretty steady from 05-06 to the present, ranging from 19.3 to 20.8 threes attempted per game, averaged over each season.

Some of Oppland's teams were a bit lower:
02-03 16.0, 03-04, 17.3, 04-05 16.1

01-02 was the other high year recorded by ESPN, 23.8 threes attempted per game again.  With Barton attempting almost six a game by himself.

HC,

Is it going to ruin your Christmas when you have to vote the Titans #1 this week?  8)

[HC]

Not at all, as long as I don't have to pick you at the end of the year! Merry Christmas

[HC]

Here is what I sent Jimmy at Panther you for the first week of league games.

Det
UIC
Valpo
YSU
Loyola
WSU
GB
Milwaukee
CSU

I probably went a little homer by placing Valpo that high, oh well!

Did this poll just fizzle away?

Jimmy at Panther U probably isn't as interested in the poll anymore. He knows who's going to be last place on every ballot.
