i thought val still should have been on this team.
fr 22.1 pts./13.9 reb/46 blk
so 20.9 pts/10.9 reb/53blk
jr .24.8pts@58FG%/14.3 reb/39blk
sr .25. pts@59FG%/12.reb/18blk
took her 44 games to get to 1000 pts.
career point total 2,763
career rebound total 1,525
career blocks 156
all this at 6'2"

she wasn't on an elite team,but she was absolutely an elite player.

Vicky Bullett was the best low-post player in ACC history. How she's not on this list is not only a crime, but another example of how if ESPN never heard of you, you didn't exist in women's basketball.

Yeah, just because she averaged more points & rebounds, was the best player on a national championship team, and was national player of the year, why would anyone think Lobo was the better player.

lobo
fr ppg 14.3/ 7.9 reb
so ppg 16.7 /11.2
jr ppg 19.2/11.2
sr ppg 17.1/ 9.8
career total points 2133
career total rebounds 1268

since when is 2133 more than 2763?
since when is 1268 more than 1525?
oh, wait -you must do that "new" math.

still was a better player. she didn't have the team that lobo did but she was a much better player. oh yes-wasn't she the mvp of the abl too?

I was thinking Lobo vs Bullett. Those numbers are not Bullett's. Vicky Bullett's totals were 1928 points, 968 rebounds, and 170 blocks. Lobo had 2133, 1268, and 396.

If we go by numbers alone, Patricia Hoskins beats them all.

Except that half of Still's numbers weren't under the NCAA, they were under the AIAW.

Yeah, the lists kinda still have that gray area between AIAW and NCAA (though I like that they have an AIAW list), though I saw that they had some transistion-era players, and they did *consider* Val Still.

I think it's too focused on the last ten years. Yes, I know they've only got twenty-five years to work with.

(As an aside, though, I did love watching Vicky Bullett as a Sting player and as a Mystic- one of my first non-Liberty favorites. So underappreciated.)

Lists always make me nervous... at least they listed them aphabetically. Smile

I do think they whimped out by calling it the pre-NCAA era, as if the NCAA didn't exist. It simply didn't exist for women. It would have killed them to say the AIAW? Wink

Let's just say this: Anyone who saw Vicky Bullett and Rebecca Lobo play in person and thinks that Lobo was a better player in college has no idea what he/she was watching.

I saw Vicky Bullett play for Maryland in the Final Four in 1989. They lost to eventual champion Tennessee, but Bullett's the player I still recall.
