MMBOD Feb 24: Ibrahim Jaaber - Pennsylvania

By Kyle Whelliston on February 25, 2006 11:56 AM |

There are two types of people in this world: Ibby and anti-Ibby. When you're Ibby, you conduct your business with a calm dignity and dart-sharp exactitude. Why, being Ibby might make you the most efficient scorer in Division I basketball if you measure the highest effective FG% (64%) for ppg (19.1). But if you're anti-Ibby, you're selfish and arrogant, repeatedly driving the lane of life and not looking to kick it out.

Last night, Ibby was very Ibby, spacing his 21 shots over 44 minutes, matching his season 64% eFG% and setting a career-high for points. Eighteen of those came in the first half, and his three free throws at the end of overtime helped sink the Crimson. Penn is 8-1, and could still be the first bid-clincher in Hoops Nation again next weekend... now that's Ibby.

What We Do
Having recently completed its fourth season, The Mid-Majority is a blog about the 22 smaller Division I college basketball conferences (and independents) by me, Kyle Whelliston. I write for ESPN.com and Basketball Times, and maintain the Basketball State statistics website as well.

Here's a brief note on who we talk about, and why.

If you need to contact me for any reason, you can do so with this form. If you're looking for the stats, maps or budget data, it's all over here now.
