I have re-read this multiple times and it's pretty clear what I'm typing. He will not average a triple double, he will not average a quadruple double, nor will he get a quadruple double. He will make 1st team all BE, as Gumby pointed out these are opinions and to say the kid will get a triple double in a game this year is honestly not that crazy a prediction if you have seen this kid play. Coming out of HS he was the number one rated PG in the country and a McDonalds All American so it's not like it should shock anyone that he is really good. Quite honestly if the bigs on the team could gather themselves at the rim better he would be averaging a double double.


I know what you typed. I never said, anything about averaging a triple double. I said, triple doubles are hard to record, hence the reason why it's rare.

I also said, he wouldn't get a quadruple double. Frankly, I don't think he comes close to getting one.

My bad, FriarJ. If you're saying he will have good individual games, I concur. I assume bold predictions have to do with season numbers.

Yeah Dunn is a very good player who is now is getting back to full health, but predicting triple doubles and even flirting with a quadruple double? Come'on man. Triple doubles are extremely rare so predicting one of those is going out on a real thin limb, but a quad?(even just flirting?) In NCAA history there has been, ONE, count them, ONE, quadruple double in NCAA D1 history. ONE.

Maybe Obekpa can pull off a triple double himself? 11 points, 11 rebounds 10 blocks? Tulane? DePaul? Help a guy out here! hahaha

So . . . You're saying it's been done before? If so, I guess it can again? No problem,

Is 17 pt's, 14 dimes, 9 boards, and 8 steals flirting with it?

Does he even have a triple double yet? And here your going on about a quad. Again ONE quadruple double in the entire NCAA history, ONE. Not saying he isn't a very good player, but even LeBron rarely gets triple doubles. BTW, who is that stat line against, just out of curiosity, because I don't see ANYTHING from this year from him that is even close to that.

This is my opinion. There are many like it, but this one is mine.

After having watched this year has been great. He is still improving at this point and is finally showing us all the hype and promises were correct. I have no problem thinking he will get at least 1 triple double-maybe more.
