The official Titan web page and record book list all Titan 1000 point scorers--there are 43--but only the Top 10 in most categories. So I'm going to try to put together top 50 lists in the major stat categories. I may miss some but I'll correct them as I can.
Assists were an official stat in the 1951 and 1952 seasons, and then were dropped by the NCAA for more than 25 years. Even after they were reinstated as an official stat, some reporting was sporadic. Thus we only have complete information for the Titans from the 1983 season on, though it's nearly complete from the mid-70s. And those two seasons from the early 50s.
This means we don't have any info on players such as Lou Hiatt and Ray Albee, who probably had quite a few assists--heck, my guess is Lou Hiatt would be in the top 5 of this list, maybe at the very top. For others, we have some data, but not complete--for example, John Long probably belongs near the bottom of the list--he has exactly 100 assists in his first three years--but we don't have 1978 totals for him. [Every now and then I find more data--for example, I was able to add Laval Perry and Riley Dotson to the list in January 2023, and "found" over 100 previously not included assists for Mark Moore around the same time, moving him way up].
Anyway Where a player makes this list with less than complete career info, I've noted that with an asterisk and listed only the years for which I have information, and based the per game average on the number of games played in those seasons only.
