I said my comments within this thread were to spark discussion, which they did. Furthermore, I did not start this thread, nor have I ever started a Jake Odum, or Indiana State thread.
I have yet to chime in on which player is better, which player is more valuable to their team and I haven't declared either Fairfield or Campbell as better competition. I have stated for a while that it is way to early to start crowning players or teams.
My sole contribution is since we are having this discussion, is to ask people to look at the entire picture. In contrast, we have people that can't look beyond the triple-double. I concur a triple-double is impressive, but a triple-double is a combination of three individual stats, of which, Dougie McDecommitt was better in two. Does that mean Doug is a better player? No! Does the triple-double mean that Odum is better? No! But it all can lead to discussion.
And before we start criticizing these silly Indiana State/ Odum threads, it was a Tree fan that started the 9-0 Trees vs. #7 Vandy thread. Those threads are what spawned these threads. Should we all simply ignore it every time one of those threads pop up? Since last spring, that would give us plenty of Tree fan initiated threads in which to ignore.
There are three rules that I live by, never get less than 12 hours sleep, never gamble with a guy who has the same first name as a city and never get involved with a chick with a tattoo of a dagger on her body. Stick to that and everything else is gravy!
