Omaha Biliew Commits to Iowa State!

Why did you deliberately leave out their head to head stats when they played each other?

Because he doesn’t know ball.

Alright let me drop some actual statistics that matter lol..

1st game of the two teams
W - Pryce : 10 pts, 7 rbs, 3 ast, 2 blk on 2/6 FG, 2/5 3PT
L - Omaha : 27 pts, 4 rbs, 1 ast, 2 blk on 9/13 FG, 3/5 3PT

2nd game of the two teams
L - Pryce : 26 pts, 6 rbs, 1 ast, 4 blk on 10/23 FG, 3/11 3PT
W - Omaha : 21 pts, 10 rbs, 6 ast, 2 blk on 8/17 FG, 2/5 3PT

3rd game of the two teams
W - Pryce : 10 pts, 8 rbs, 0 ast, 1 blk on 3/11 FG, 2/6 3PT
L - Omaha : 21 pts, 4 rbs, 1 ast, 1 blk on 9/17 FG, 2/7 3PT


Okay so you all can do the math here.. When they played one another, Sandfort was honestly not very good. That’s your head to head matchup, especially since Omaha guarded Sandfort a lot (and Pryce couldn’t guard Omaha btw).

This should just be pinned as a response to any further discussion here.

Take the time to post all stats (if you’re capable of doing that) comparing the two. You’ll be surprised at what you find.

And to all of you. Pryce won Mr. BB. I know you are disappointed. But rather than simply saying the voting was fixed, why should Omaha have won? And yes we all know he is a very athletic 5* and is expected to be a star at the next level, but unfortunately that’s not part of the voting criteria.

It cant be based on stats, or this guy would have won: William Kiburis

26/8/8, aren't those better stats than Pryce?

 

[VeloClone]

You seem very rational . For the record here are some of the stats:

Pryce Sandfort for Iowa’s Mr. Basketball for 2023. Leads in the following 4A Statistic Categories: Total Pts: 648 (1st) Boards: 285 (1st) FG Made: 223 (1st) FG Attempts: 418 (1st) 3 Pt Made: 90 (1st) 3 Pt Attempts: 211 (1st) Def Rebounds: 249 (1st)

Lined up against Omaha, he beats him in every every stat including total rebounds and shooting percentages. My ONLY argument was that Pryce did in fact deserve Mr. BB (since one of the children on here said he only won because of retired old IA sports writers voting). I acknowledged Omaha has by far the greater college/pro potential but that’s not what wins Mr. BB.

And as to why I’m here: my two boys graduated from ISU and I TRY to root for both teams.

Could you at least post a link as to where you found Pryce and Omaha's stats?

TIA

Yes, Pryce's stats are better than OB, but others have better stats than PS.

If you were a HS coach, who would you rather have on your team?

I already know the answer.

Who cares who won Mr. BB?

 

[Final42b]

Omaha won Gatorade player of the year at least.

15/40 (37.5%) FGs in three head to head games. Big ouch.

Guess they don’t base their award on shot attempts.

WTF!!!!!!!

How is Iowa State missing out on 20-30 recruits that are all better than Omaha!!!!!?????

I assume all of these guys are Duke or Kansas commits. A few probably going to play one year in Europe for a few million before MBA draft?

How does the MBA draft work? Do colleges just choose who they think will succeed in the business world?

 

[Rabbuk]

I'm comfortable with the player we got. I would not trade for 3 Sandforts.

Well they mainly focus on high school basketball shot attempts because of the long history of chuckers from Iowa who have become CEOs.

Looking at those stats it seems at least 15 genetically enhanced bionic super Sandforts are available.

One kid has like 40 more 3 point attempts than Sandfort. He’s the next Steph Curry.

Oh no, he better give up the crown and sash, stats are all that matters, especially shot attempts!

The McCafe’s and this troll who claims to root for both teams but has trashed Omaha’s recruiting thread instead of starting some glorious Mr. Iowa Basketball thread in In-State Rivals
