Expect everyone's stats to go up significantly. Bohannon did average 9.9 PPG as a sophomore.

We just went over this. Evansville had a guy average 19ppg and another average 12&10 last year too. But they still managed to finish 7 games behind UNI.

Sometimes it isn't all about ppg.

Outside of Tuttle UNI almost never has guys put up big numbers in the scoring category

You'll see a pretty consistent trend with how scoring works

14-15 - 65 ppg
Tuttle 15.3 ppg
everyone else below 8

13-14 73ppg as a team
Tuttle - 15.4
Mitchell - 12.1
Buss 10.6
Bohannon 9.9
Washpun 8.3
Morgan 6.0
Rank 5.2

12-13 - 66.7 ppg
Anthony James 13.2
Seth Tuttle 11.4
Marc Sonnen 10.5
Jake Koch 10.4
Deon Mitchell 9.3

11-12 - 65.2 ppg
Anthony James 12.5
Seth Tuttle 9.6
Marc Sonnen 8.6
Jake Koch 8.5
Johnny Morgan 7.5
Deon Mitchell 7.0
Chip Rank 6.1

10-11 - 63.7 ppg
Kwadzo Ahelgbe 14.1
Anthony James 12.4
Jake Koch 9.8
Johnny Moran 9.6
Lucas O'Rear 6.9
Marc Sonnen 4.8

09-10 63.3 ppg
Jordan Eglseder 11.9
Adam Koch 11.7
Kwadzo Ahelegbe 10.6
Ali Farokhmanesh 9.7
Johnny Moran 5.5

08-09 - 67.4 ppg
Adam Koch 12.1 ppg
Kwadzo Ahelegbe 11.8
Jordan Eglseder 10.2
Ali Farokhmanesh 9.6
Johnny Morgan 8.4
Lucas O'Rear 5.2
Travis Brown 5.1

I could keep going but you see the trend. UNI would rather 5 or 6 guys be between 7 and 13 points than 1 guy at 20, another at 10, and the rest at about 4 or 5

Skeptical about #57 because history suggests better plus Coach Jacobson is a damn fine coach.

I agree. I'm more skeptical about Illinois State at #47.
