I don't like long drawn out questions. I like to keep the thread moving so here's a hint. The MLB player was a member of the Chicago Whitemail Sox and the Duke player was a team captain. OFC

Are you talking someone that took some 3's or someone shooting 100% cause they shot 1 or 2 in their career


Just as the question was ask. Straight up. OK guys I going to bed in a few minutes and I want it answered by then so here's the final hint. There are 41 inches height differencell between them but I still want to know the percentages. No one has prvoided that yet.
OFC

Sky must be referring to Marshall's 100% 3-point percentage - a career 1 for 1. Rumor has it that it that that record will never be broken.

For OBP, I want to say Roger Hornsby. But I'm thinking this is another case of someone going something like 2 for 2, for an OBP% of 1.000

Remember that I said it was 41 inches difference in their heights. Marshall is 84 inches tall. The baseball player has been named in this thread. OFC

Good guess but not Ted Williams. OFC
Just to clarify, Ted Williams is the career OBP leader based on players who qualify with enough at bats. But I get that you were doing sort of a trick question here.

I would be interested to know who is the career 3 point percentage leader at Duke.

It was a legit question with legit hints and legit answers. True it was a trick question but it could be answered and it was unlike some of the questions that have been ask that no way the answer could have been found even if we cheated. For example if I ask who led the class A minor league team of the Cleveland Indians led the Alamance Indians in home runs in 1963 and how many did he hit? OFC

Well dang Diehard, I want to say you got it......but, lets see if Sky gets it..... OFC


I've already looked. I would never has guessed him but now that I look back it all did come back. He was the second leading scorer in the game for Duke. Don't know how I overlooked him or forgot about his performance that game because it was big. OFC

McCaffery's 16 points were huge, and when I heard he was transferring I thought chances for a repeat moved the probabilty needle back considerably. Fortunately Thomas Hill really stepped up! OFC
