Yeah, freshman were not allowed to play varsity in those days.

That's why guys like Pete Maravich, Lew Alcindor, and Bill Walton only had 3-year college careers.

The amazing thing about Maravich was that he scored more points ....... not average points per game, but literal points ........ in 87 games WITH NO SHOT CLOCK, and WITH NO 3-POINT FIELD GOAL than any other player has ever scored before or since, including players that had 4-year varsity careers, and played anywhere in between 110 and 145 games.

3,667 points in 87 games, with no shot clock, and with no 3-point field goals. ....... and he played in the Southeastern Conference.

Freeman Williams is the next highest, with 3,249 points. But he did that in 106 games (4 years on the varsity,) playing for Portland State in the Big Sky Conference.

Would have been interesting to see what Pete Maravich would have done at NC State had his father stayed on as head coach there and not taken the LSU job. The late 60s Pack teams were pretty good (some ACC regular season and ACC Tournament titles in there.
