Maravich holds nearly all scoring records in the NCAA. Here are some stats from nba.com:
Most career points (3,667).
Highest career scoring average (44.2 points per game).
Most field goals made (1,387).
Most field goals attempted (3,166).
Most career 50-point games (28).
Most points scored in a single season (1,381).
Highest scoring average in a single season (44.5 points per game).
It must be noted that Maravich did all the above without the aid of three-point baskets. According to Wikipedia, former basketball head coach of LSU, Dale Brown, noted every shot that Pete Maravich took in college basketball and calculated that Pete would have made an average of 13 three-point shots per game. If he played under current regulations with the three-point arc set at 5.8 metres (19-foot 9 inches) from the rim, he would have averaged 57 points per gam
