So on all of the national tweets about KC's triple-double record, I see a

handful of replies stating that Magic had 8 in his 2 seasons at Michigan State. Yet everyone says that KC owns the record. Is it because Magic had his before the NCAA started tracking those officially? Because it wouldn't surprise me at all if Magic did indeed have 8.

So to shut the Spartan fans up, KC has to get 2 more.

When did the NCAA officially start tracking that stat?

11/29/15 4:39pm

Yes, just like how Dale Brown went back & calculated Pistol Pete Maravich

Assists didn't become an official NCAA stat until 1983.

That's the claim, that he went back and mapped all his shots

SpiffCoug

11/29/15 7:06pm

not a chance, he probably hit 4-5(still would be ridiculous) but the guy in his

palangi

11/29/15 7:16pm

HA! Really, he added 3 more points HAHA

NCAA didn't start officially tracking assists until the early 80s

I predict that KC will get 3-4 more, so it won't matter anyway.

11/29/15 7:58pm

Considering we're only 5 games in and he's four rebs/ast of two more. Good bet
