Who is the best player in the Big Ten?

Recommended Posts

for a freshman with numbers Trimble had it says he's very good and his and Yogi's numbers aren't greatly off. But Trimble was also playing with another player like Dez Wells. Yogi did not play with a player like that.

Never said Trimble wasn't very good. He's just not as good as Yogi. I hate the logic you're using. Dez Wells wasnt great. He was good. Not sure why he's part of the equation. I could say Yogi had to get Blackmon enough shots, or Troy involved, but I didnt. Yogi is the better player. The stats prove it. ESPECIALLY the head to head statistics between the two. Maryland has the better team but Indiana has the best PG in the league.

I'll still stick with the fact that they're about the same. And a good chance Trimble passes Yogi this year. Stats don't always tell the story. Neither do head to head. Derrick Rose didn't have great stats but just by watching him you could tell how good he was. Trimble is the same way. Remember Zeller vs Mbakwe? Obviously Zeller was the better player(and by lightyears) but it was a matchup that could be put into Mbakwe's favor because of the physicality of the college game. I'm not saying Yogi isn't good but to say he is absolutely better than Trimble is silly.

and Yogi really didn't have the stats to say he was absolutely better than Melo. Yogi had the assist but Melo had the win shares. And Yogi averaged 0.1 ppg more they both shot like 41% from 3. Melo averaged more steals. Both were really good from the FT line. Melo actually shot better from the field overall. If there is a tie on ITH's then it really can't be argued.
