Senior Forward Haminn Quaintance of Kent State gets a little home cooking from the Cleveland Plain Dealer here. Apparently, "Q" reached a milestone in points, rebounds, blocks, steals, assists, and lost cell phone numbers never before seen in NCAA basketball. The "closest", according to the article, was national player of the year Lionel Simmons:
According to research by Kent State, since the NCAA began keeping track of blocked shots in 1986, 'Q' is believed to be the first player to achieve 1,200 points (1,297), 800 rebounds (867), 250 assists (286), 250 blocks (261) and 200 steals (211). The closest were 1989-90 national player of the year Lionel Simmons of La Salle - who later played for the NBA's Sacramento Kings (3,217 points, 1429 rebounds, 355 assists, 248 blocks and 239 steals)...When 'Q' first got to Kent State, he said he lost over 500 phone numbers off his cell phone.
What? Umm, Lionel had 2,000 more points, 500 more rebounds, more steals, more assists, and it's not even fair to compare lost phone numbers.

And considering that there were no cell phones back then, you'd probably have to double the number since Lionel only needed one number for two roommates.
That's like when you look at Pistol Pete's numbers and realize there was no three point line.
