1943-1998 College Basketball Stats, 8000+ Team Seasons
Posted by Justin Kubatko on January 10, 2013
College basketball is a difficult sport for statisticians. There are currently 347 Division I programs, more than 11 times the number of NBA teams. Due in part to the large number of teams, complete college basketball stats are hard to come by (we currently have complete Division I stats back to the 1998-99 season).
We have had scans of historical college basketball stat sheets for some time, but the process to get them on the site was a bit laborious. However, I happy to announce today that we have added scans of stat sheets for 326 different schools, accounting for 8404 team seasons (full inventory after the jump).
Our hope is to one day replace these scans with stat tables that you can sort, etc., but for now we hope you enjoy this addition to the site. Please let us know if you have any questions or comments regarding the site.
Wade Reynolds my great uncle , minor leagues, also had a cup of coffee with the Detroit Tigers, and he threw right and batted left. His brothers Hammond, James, Robert all played in the minors. Their hometown was White Plains,Ga. , pop. 2,500. They were compelled to play ball as pros, after a locust plague wiped out the economy of White Plains in 1917. James Reynolds, my grandfather, joined the Army in 1918, and was an officer cadet in training when the War ended 11/11/1918. He and Wade and Robert all went to work for DuPont and all lived in Gibbstown, N.J. In DuPont housing. James once again joined the Army at age 41, in Jan.,1941. His son, James Reynolds,Jr. Had joined in Aug., 1940. Grandpa was discharged in April, 1941 with the rank of Pvt. My uncle, James Jr. Went MIA in Sept., 1944.
