Rak was crazy good! Has anyone figured out the last time an SU player dropped 35?

43 years ago tonight an SU center scored 47. In the interim, no Syracuse center scored 35 or more.

... he is a better defensive rebounder than any undersized 3-4 type player than I can think of that we have had since we have been exclusively zone. ...

I think that's true. Other than Paul Harris (whose tenure contributed to Boeheim's decision to go all-zone), Gbinije is our best rebounding 3 since...I don't know, Dave Johnson? At least 20 years ago. Really impressive.
