Jack Taylor, Who Scored 138 Points in a Game for Division III Grinnell, May Be Out for the Year With a Broken Wrist
Jack Taylor, the kid who rose to fame in November when he scored 138 points in a college basketball game, left Grinnell’s game Wednesday with what appeared to be a broken wrist after falling to the court in the first half. In a demonstration of just how different basketball is at the small Division III school, his dad drove him to Iowa City to get x-rays.
Taylor’s 138-point outburst spawned a range of stories, from amazement, to Kobe uttering profanities, to people questioning him for scoring so much, and being called a bully by, well, take a guess.
Hey, we’ve all had wrist overuse injuries. At least Taylor’s came from jacking up shots.

I’m impressed, that woman has to be DIII school’s athletic trainer and pen columns for the NY Times about Brent Musberger.

I would wager on the hard 8 before wagering on the sex of the person sitting next to Grinnell in that photo.

He’s only averaging 35.8 points per game after that 138 point outburst. Fraud.
