Would put Clark 14th in scoring and 3rd in rebounding while passing both Paul Hogue and Robert Miller in those two categories.

I think he doesn't quite get to 1,500. Gary has come on strong the last three games with 14-17 point performances, but IMHO he will get back to baseline at some point and average 10-12 points a night over the last stretch of the season (based on his career averages). I see him finishing north of 1400 points and in that 16-17 range. Obviously a lot of this is dependent on how many games we play in the conference tournament and NCAAT.

OTOH, I listened to Mick's interview with the media and he indicated he has counseled Gary of late to start putting up more points so that it will help get him "noticed" by scouts for his professional career. Its possible that the 14-15 points will be the new norm, since the 10-12 ppg was based on Gary being unselfish and distributing the ball.

If you noticed he's also told him starting dunking ball at rim and increase his rebound numbers. He's going after ALL rebounds. I even noticed our guards have been told let our bigs grab rebounds for the numbers.
