Flyers record holder: Trivia

[Smitty10]

What record does Jordan Sibert alone hold for the Flyers?

Hint, Don May is tied for 2nd with several players and after that is a three way tie between Sedric Toney, Khari Price and Vee Sanford.

Edited to add Khari Price.

Before I read the rest of your question, I was going to say Jordan holds the record for most times on TV being identified as "The Ohio State Transfer Jordan Sibert"

Best winning percentage in NCAA games.

You guys made me have to think, but that's wrong. Since Chapman, Price, Sanford, Kavs, Gavs, Scott, Robinson and DMO(.750) have a better winning percentage than Toney.600 and Sibert(only 5 out of 7 which is less than .750).

I was thinking best average NCAA tournament wins per season. Sibert's at 2.5, May, Hooper, Waterman and Torraine are at 1.67. Toney, Price and Sanford at 1.5

So, other than the Ohio State thing that CFF mentioned, I think this is the only record(and it's a significant one IMO) that JS holds.

Shortening that for the most times having Ohio State mentioned with their name, I'm guessing Don May would be 2nd there also as having played high school with Ohio State star Bill Hosket.

I show Gene Klaus with a 2.33 wins per year from 64-65 thru 66-67. (I have 2 few-minute-guys in 1966 with 2.5. (John Rohm, Richard Fox)

Jordan Sibert is tied for first with a bunch of people at 37 games played in a season.

Jordan Sibert also has most minutes played in a season in 2014 with 1,215 minutes. Chapman is second with 1,205 in 1983.

Actually(and I was going to post this to be safe and forgot), the record would be "played in most NCAA wins per season" (Fox and Rohm did not play 2.5 wins per season.)

So I apologize for the hint and label being wrong(he's absolutely correct about Klaus).

So Figgie, if I would've said "played in most NCAA wins per season" and put Klaus as 2nd, would I have been correct?

I wasn't around in the mid to late 60s, and don't have boxscores for those years (yet), so I was just listing those 2 guys based on being on the roster those years.

What about Dave Inderrieden and John Samanich? They played in 41 and 27 games, respectively, over the same 3 year span as Klaus. Would it be possible they played in the NCAA games?

Then I have Jim Wannemacher and Dennis Papp at 1.75 and they played in 58 and 56 overall games in their respective careers. Wannemacher over 4 years, Papp over 3 (disjointed 63-64, 64-65, 66-67). (So, Papp at 1.75 is wrong, since I used last year minus first year...)

I was just trying to add to stuff, and Klaus just popped out when I did it. It was a fun exercise.

I think "played in most NCAA wins per season" is an accurate representation.

Papp is the guy(I think lol) that Donoher said was the greatest shooter he ever had and that they would've won national championship one of those years if he wasn't hurt. So I'm pretty sure he didn't play in all the tournament games that happened during his span.

Yeah, I don't have access to all the box scores either so I shouldn't have thrown in the hints the way I did. I was just thinking that the common link to success in the tournament these past few years was Sibert and that got me started thinking about it. I threw it together pretty fast after that.

	Don Donoher DON DONOHER Legendary Flyer men's basketball coach who guided Dayton to 435 victories in 25 seasons (1964-1989) including the 1967 NCAA Runner-Up. Took over the program after the passing of Tom Blackburn and earned many NCAA and NIT bids over his career, including five Sweet-16s, one Elite Eight appearance, and the 1968 NIT Championship. Groomed All-Americans Don May and Jim Paxson, along with all-time leading scorer Roosevelt Chapman. Coached UD as they joined conference affiliation for the first time (Midwest Collegiate). A graduate of UD, Donoher played for Blackburn and credits much of his coaching success to his mentor's teachings: defense, ball protection, patience, and unselfishness.
