Rebounding is the biggest strength of this team thanks to Brandon Johnson. Several other players have been challenged publicly to rebound better. Lets take a look at some of the top rebounders in past years and how they compare.
We should note that on such a strong rebounding team overall they are competing with each other at a point whereas they were not on past weaker ECU rebounding teams. These are the apples-to-apples rebounds are per possession. The per 100 possessions goes back to 2009-2010.
I kicked the players out that didn't play in 15 or more games in a season for past players. ECU's numbers vs better teams to finish the season will likely drop some and I'll update this later in the season. We'll probably try to compare some other cats too.
LaCount hasn't done a ton of impressive things this season, but his rebounding for his stature is pretty impressive. He still managed to outrebound a few notable other guards by a good amount. He's outrebounding Caleb White's 4.3 as a 6-7 senior. He also is pulling nearly as many as Spas. Those are the two worst rebounders I can ever recall at ECU.
