I did not know that but I worked with a non-ISU guy that projected that we would do better in the tournament than expected due to the team's great passing.You're being really kind the way you refer to that team lol. EC was legit. A better team and he challenges for top 5 single season assist mark in my opinion.
By the way, I never knew that the 78-79 team had 3 dudes who's assist numbers that year are in the top 6 for all time single season assists!! DAMN!!
