Where Ejim stacks up against the all-time great Cyclones | News | Men's Basketball | Cyclone Fanatic

 

[CyFan61]

Ejim has a good shot at ending the year with these career accolades:

*#1 in starts
*#1 in games played
*#2 in rebounds
*Top 10 in steals
*Top 15 in scoring
*Top 15 in blocks
*2014 Big 12 Player of the Year
*Three NCAA Tournaments

*2014 Final Four

Never would have estimated him having that many steals.

 

[CapnCy]

Really hope we can snag the 2 or 3 seed in the conference tourney to more easily get a couple wins....really want him to get the record (obviously, want to play deep into March).

 

[Cyclones_R_GR8]

Those will be some pretty huge shoes to fill next season. He is the heart and soul of this years team.

DON'T LEAVE US MEL!!!

Somebody pull up the ejim vs basabe threads from four years ago, obvious to either side at the time they clearly had the better player and coach to develop him.

Chris, you forgot "#1 in our hearts".

 

[CyBelieve]

David Moss (aka Mossome) with 57 block shots?!?!?!?!?! I never would have guessed that. Maybe 5 to 7 but not 57

 

[CyBelieve]

in my short tenure as a fan, he may be the most complete ball player we've had since Grayer.

 

[Cyclonic]

1500 pt/1000 rb club - currently just a membership of 1.

Assuming he gets to 1500 pts and 1000 rebounds, the only other player in Cyclone history to do that would be Zaid Abdul-Aziz. And Zaid is nowhere else really in the conversation as far as Steals, Blocks. Of course he didn't have the 3 pt line either.

Jersey to be hung, period.

He is one of my faves... will really miss that guy in Hilton. I wish him nothing but the best and thank him for his efforts.

 

[ribsnwhiskey]

Phil Kunz!

 

[LawyerClone]

What is he on a per game basis?

There's a thread comparing Woodbury and Niang from last spring that I'm going to have to start looking for soon too.
I believe there was a lot of speculating about one of them averaging 18pts/game, which at the time seemed ridiculous to hawks trolls. Right now he's not that far off.

The hoiberg era has not been kind to the prognostications of Hawkeye trolls.
