Greg (Kid) Kohls was an awesome shooter whose scoring can’t be compared since there were no 3 point shots back then. Boeheim said he was probably the best “long shooter” SU ever had and that he would have averaged at least 5 more points a game if they had counted 3’s back then.

As it was he averaged his junior year 22 points/game, 4 assists, and then 27 points, 4 assists as a senior. Freshman couldn’t play and he rarely played his sophomore year. What is even more amazing is that his Fg% was 44.4% for his career despite shooting mostly what would have been 3’s today. How great to average 44.4% as an SU player. :)I was fortunate to see him even play at an away game at Niagara, my then boyfriend, later husband’s college, and saw him go off as usual in an SU win against a very good Niagara team coached by Frank Layden (later the heralded Utah Jazz head coach). Wonder how many of those foul shots he took would have been 3 shots instead of 2 also?
