The craziest part to me isn't the 111 attempts, but the 40 makes out of them. 36% efficiency for that volume of long-distance shooting is absurd and shows how dedication to any system (no matter how outlandish 🤣) can pay off. Unfortunately for a particular NBA team in Houston, that didn't go so well for them in a certain Game 7 some five years ago...
7 for 44.......1 for fucking 21 in the second half. 16% efficiency...I'm still pissed off about that...9 points away from facing a Kyrie-less Cavaliers that got swept by the Warriors for the chip.
Troy St. set that record but they were also the fastest paced team in college history. They took 191 shots in that game. Another team that no one talks about was Arizona St. in the mid-90s. In an era where 15-20 threes was a ton, they took 30-40.

My intramural team in college, "The 3-Point Squirrels", did this for the entire season. We forfeited one game because someone accidentally stepped on the line and made a 2 pointer, and we didn't want it to count in the books. We made it to the championship, but lost. We mostly just had one guy that shot 50% from downtown basically the whole season, and couldn't be stopped. He scored 66 points in one of our games lol. Great times.
Yeah, that would have been fun for me, until the forfeit. Then I'd just walk away. That's just lame. People make mistakes all the time. Forfeiting a game over a mistake is stupid, and I'd refuse to be part of any group that punished their members so severely.

Upper Sandusky (High School) ran this offense back in 2005 and went (27-0) to win the Ohio Division 2 State Title. 2 years later in 2007 they were the Ohio State Runner-Up averaging 94.2 ppg while giving up 77.2 ppg. (23-4) record. Yes, they had a star player a 6'7" player that scored 3,208 points in his 4 years of High School and avg 40.8 ppg his senior year. These are 32 minute games. Averaging 94 ppg in 32 minutes. Basically 3 points a minute. Equivalent of an NBA team averaging 141 ppg. Their system was Shoot 3, give up a layup, shoot 3, give up a layup, shoot 3, give up a layup, shoot 3.
Crazy how Jximmy can still find new and interesting/exciting content in a dead basketball time period that’s creative and unique. Respect and admiration sir.
If you want another truly remarkable stat, Troy State and DeVry once played a college basketball game that finished 253-141!!! (The official record is even crazier, it says Troy State scored 258 points.) It is the highest-scoring game in college basketball history. On average, the teams used 3.9 seconds of the shot clock per possession. There's a guy named Jon Bois who made a great video on it; would highly recommend it.
What I learned about schools like that is that they are bona fide grown man recreational leagues when you come to those colleges I knew a guy around here that was definitely D1 but his grades were bad and he flunked off in school so he ended up going to to some low-key Community College that was based in electronics like ECPI or type would attack and they happen to have a basketball team and he averaged like 35 a game because their competition is really kind of like playing pickup games ..and and like I said this guy had major D1 Talent not like a duke or North Carolina but he could have made it to a low-key D1 school and did his thing but he ended up at a community college where he definitely didn't belong and dominated
Its wild watching this because the first scene puts into great perspective how efficient the Warriors have been. It seems as though they take a lot of threes but really they take JUST enough to sway the tide of a game, while also being a semi-dominant team in the post.
Please remind me which dominant post players the Warriors have had in the last 10 years lmao. They never play out of the post. They just have a good halfcourt offense with their set pieces, not to mention what they get away with in the pick and roll.
I went to Illinois college, a rival school of Grinelle’s in the same conference. They are also a power house for tennis. When I graduated in 2021 they hadn’t lost a conference tennis match in 15 years. Every time I had to travel to play them, I knew I was in for a miserable 2 hours.
In greece we used to have a famous young talent... His name is Babis Vondas and used to dominate the basket by shooting only three point meters. He probably ended playing college basketball in Grinnell
Been watching Grinnell since 2004. It's just entertaining basketball. Imagine watching an entire game where there's full court press, let alone the 3s and the constant subs.
Shoutout to the Houston Rockets of 2027, who attempted 40.5 threes a game lead by Chris Paul and James Harden both coming back to try and get a ring just to get eliminated in the second round. So inspirational man.

When I was a kid, I would think “why don’t teams just hire all the best 3pointers, have them only train half/full court shots, and then pick up a few Rodman types. Just rotate, the Rodman’s in, after you score, and the 3pointers in when you have the ball.” Think about all the time guys spend running, and drilling other stuff? Why? When you can just get 3 snipers. It’s hilariously awesome to see teams going for this more and more.
as someone who doesn't play basketball, i have always wondered why things like this weren't happening more regularly. If you know you can efficiently hit threes, and you're going to have more attempts doing this, then surely you get more points in the long run
Not really. This sort of system breaks down when you have elite athletes who are well coached and there are huge disparities in talent level among players. If you’re gonna hock threes like this in the NBA you’re not cracking 33% and you’re giving up layups that are probably cracking 70% plus plenty of free throws. You can’t rotate a whole 5 like these teams do because then you’re putting marginal NBA players up against another team’s stars.
Your videos are so entertaining and well edited. Even a feat like this which is entertaining on paper is elevated by your 13 min video presentation. I honestly thought the video was shorter because of how engrossed I was.

My brother went to Grinnell a long time ago, but they've been doing things like this even back then. They used to hang signs up around the school to promote games. "Most schools think 100 to 70 is a good game. We call that a good half."
I've learned that when Jimmy shows a chart or graph you need to be prepared for the big reveal as the camera pans up to some insane statistic or record. Great video as usual.
My brother goes to monmouth college, a school in Grinell's conference. He plays football against them all the time. It's cool to see a D3 team like that talked about on this channel!
The real question is why the other team was consistently in the paint on defense. Everybody couldn't just guard the 3 point line? The spot up 3 is literally the easiest thing to guard in basketball.
Im surprised you didn’t mention DeVry University vs Troy State in 1992. Final score of 258-141 (officially). That 200-point game isn’t even in the same universe as the actual record.
Grinnell is not only an anomaly in basketball, in the state of Iowa, or even really the country. The school is kinda like this in all aspects. Pretty sure they have the largest endowment besides like Harvard and it's in the middle of NOWHERE in Iowa. There's all sorts of crazy stats about graduation rates, attendance, and most notably post graduation success is nutso.

Smh get her off the commentator booth immediately we should get a petition going let’s get her canceled lol.
This embodies how fun everything used to be 20 years ago vs how fun it is now with everyone min/maxing everything they possibly can in every area of life
138 points and 108 shots attempted by just one player (Jack Taylor) alone is definitely crazier and more absurd than the Grinnell College 3 point record for sure for sure in my opinion.
During the pandemic isolation, i was writing out algorithms for game theory in different sports. The winning formula for basketball is (Points/Time) with the shot clock being 24 seconds and there being 3 primary outcomes (miss, 2pt, 3pt) the objective is set clear. Shooting a 2 pointer with 16 seconds left is as impactful upon the outcome of the game as a 3 pointer with 8 seconds left.
People don't realize how much Grinnell has influenced the game. Now maybe not directly, but a lot of coaches seen what they were doing and were intrigued and started taking bigger risks because of Grinnell. Also, if you're a high school coach and your team isn't that talented and can't compete you might want to look into running the system until you get the talent level up. It's a fun way to play and it's way better for the moral of the team/community to lose by ton but scoring a lot than it is to lose by a ton and scoring barely anything.
Idk vs any competent team if you dont make 2s alongside 3 you are not even gonna make 5% of 3s. The only reason a 3 is hard to block is because you have to be careful the attacker doesnt pass through you for a layup. Otherwise good luck making a 3 when your defender is 1 cm away from your chin.
@@wassup4532 have you ever coached or played for or against someone running the system? It's not easy to adjust to. And no offense but Grinnell is doing fine against "competent" teams year in and year out.
@@wassup4532 Grinnell does take 2s, they just didn't in the 111 3-pointer game to go for the record. The System emphasizes 3s, yes, but they do also take 2s when the opportunity presents itself
@@bibbyboi no I dont and for a reason. Ive seen 'only 3s' players that get shut down insanely fast once the defense realize he cant do a layup. Also college basket d3 isnt even a good league, you get lots of bad teams that they get rolled over
@@eter8212 when i watched then i would say the first shot, and fast breaks even from inbound where the special recipe from grinnel (lot of hail mary passes and often just 3-4 defender in the own half). The opposing teams especially with short rotation, where running a lot especially if the attack with 5 dudes and while the ball handler was under pressure you doesnt get time to rest. Intresting approach, grinnel implemented it probadly a bit to extreme but they are doing ok in there league and the records probadly helps in recruiting.
@@truthiscensored Nah, he was just the designated scorer. Grinnell, when they decide to bust a record, picks a single player (usually their leading scorer for the year or a senior) to go ahead and do it. He got to chuck 70 threes by himself, pretty much, against a bible college the AD scheduled to fill their non-conference slate so they really couldn't do anything about it. Also, he snapped his arm damn near in half a couple games later, hence why he never came up in the news again. He put up 100 the next year, but nobody cares when you put up 109 the second time on 50% shooting. Taylor could have played in a tier 2 league overseas, but he walked away from the game to focus on raising his daughter and his faith. he kinda just vanished, but dude was always p religious and i guess he wanted a better platform to talk about religion and stuff than basketball.
Great video Jimmy. I about crapped myself when I saw the thumbnail as I live in Grinnell and went to school with the current coach. I’m literally working 4 blocks away from the basketball gym.
I agree with you. In 1993, I got into basketball because of seeing Michael Jordan do spectacular layups then I saw Drazen Petrovic play and shoot a lot of 3 pointers then I became obsessed with 3 pointers.
An Iowan myself, I live 20 minutes away from a baseball field that lies in the middle of a cornfield that MLB teams have been coming to play at these last few years. If you ever have a drive for something unique, go watch one of those games at the Field of Dreams. It's a very special experience.

What's crazier to me was the previous record was 109 attempts back in 1992. That's insane considering how less common 3s were back then
It was so experimental and an overkill that it probably delayed the 3 pt era. Maybe a team that focused on 3s but not so much would've sped up things.
Troy St. set that record but they were also the fastest paced team in college history. They took 191 shots in that game. Another team that no one talks about was Arizona St. in the mid-90s. In an era where 15-20 threes was a ton, they took 30-40.

3:44 the 2027 rockets was an electric team, I can’t believe they didn’t win a title
I genuinely want to interview the Jack Taylor who scored 138 points in one single game.. That's just absurd.
My brother goes to monmouth college, a school in Grinell's conference. He plays football against them all the time. It's cool to see a D3 team like that talked about on this channel!
Grinell's football teams have all receivers and throws all Hail Mary's
@bwink23 Very true. They have some insane throwers for track too.
Grinnel is a beast omg. The dedication, the sheer comittment.
Grinnell:"Can you shoot threes?"
Me:"Yes."
Grinnell:"Give this man a scholarship right now!"
My friend: *chucks up a bunch of threes*
also my friend after he misses most of them: “DAMN MAN CURRY RUINED THE GAME😡”
😂😂
No, it's because it's boring as hell to watch. What you wanna see, dunks and power blocks inside or nerds shooting 3's?
@@generalkayoss7347
Nerds shooting threes has its attractions.
7:15 I love how you can see the 3-point percentage right below and Jeff Clement is nowhere to be found 😅
I’m not gonna lie, this video had me laughing so hard. Jxmy with another banger. Keep up the hard work brother
You’d be thinking they were broadcasting at a golf tourment how quite those commentators are at 8:53 😂
i’m from grinnel iowa and we watched jack taylor drop 109 points in a game
yooo I'm from Grinnell too, saw the 138 game
@@eter8212 really do u have a name you don’t have to share if you don’t want too, but we might know each other…

The real question is why the other team was consistently in the paint on defense. Everybody couldn't just guard the 3 point line? The spot up 3 is literally the easiest thing to guard in basketball.
Im surprised you didn’t mention DeVry University vs Troy State in 1992. Final score of 258-141 (officially). That 200-point game isn’t even in the same universe as the actual record.
Just wanted to let you know, I love every single one of your videos Mr High-roller. Thank you sir!
Jimmy never dissapoints with his uploads
It’s crazy that i know all the guys on the team. Very great guys and very happy that i got to meet all of them throughout the years.
Grinnell is not only an anomaly in basketball, in the state of Iowa, or even really the country. The school is kinda like this in all aspects. Pretty sure they have the largest endowment besides like Harvard and it's in the middle of NOWHERE in Iowa. There's all sorts of crazy stats about graduation rates, attendance, and most notably post graduation success is nutso.
not the largest, but definitely up there in endowment per student
but yes, a very highly ranked liberal arts college for where we are
😂😂😂 pointing out at 3:44 those 2027 rockets are nuts
always a good day when jimmy uploads
Do any of you bots have an original thought or nah?
@@darthsilversith667 it’s pretty wild and pathetic that you have nothing better in life to do then reply to people trying to be tough 😂 it’s okay little guy you don’t have to take it out on people on the internet.
For things like this it's so surprising when some NBA analysts gives more importance to College basketball vs some league overseas...
There’s no way that guy just passed up the most open layup of all time at 8:45 😭😭
3 is more than 2
The Ben Simmons special
Shoutout to the commentators covering the Grinnell game. Their energy was infectious.
I was just about to come in and comment on this shit. That was the worst commentating in the history of commentators. Probably because she didn’t realize what kind of history was being made because she doesnt pay attention. She actually said at one point that it annoys her. Smh get her off the commentator booth immediately we should get a petition going let’s get her canceled lol.
5:01 bro this edit was so funny 😂 made me chuckle
I played on an aau team with number 10, adam. His shot has always been so pure but its been so cool to see how INSANE of a shooter he is today
This embodies how fun everything used to be 20 years ago vs how fun it is now with everyone min/maxing everything they possibly can in every area of life
they did this in the 90s
This is one of the best videos you have ever made keep it up👍👍👍
3:49 damn, James Harden really going back to Houston + jacking up that many threes? Jimmy's a time traveler
Keep up the good work Jimmy👍
Every time I watch this channel, it’s a masterpiece. Please keep pumping out quality content, we love it!
138 points and 108 shots attempted by just one player (Jack Taylor) alone is definitely crazier and more absurd than the Grinnell College 3 point record for sure for sure in my opinion.
What makes these videos so wonderful (besides the music) is the foreshadowing and delayed information.
Whenever Jimmy uploads i feel like a kid on Xmas morning
bro so original
ong
During the pandemic isolation, i was writing out algorithms for game theory in different sports. The winning formula for basketball is (Points/Time) with the shot clock being 24 seconds and there being 3 primary outcomes (miss, 2pt, 3pt) the objective is set clear. Shooting a 2 pointer with 16 seconds left is as impactful upon the outcome of the game as a 3 pointer with 8 seconds left.
In Grinnell's system it would shooting a three-pointer with 16 seconds left in a 24-second shot clock.
People don't realize how much Grinnell has influenced the game. Now maybe not directly, but a lot of coaches seen what they were doing and were intrigued and started taking bigger risks because of Grinnell. Also, if you're a high school coach and your team isn't that talented and can't compete you might want to look into running the system until you get the talent level up. It's a fun way to play and it's way better for the moral of the team/community to lose by ton but scoring a lot than it is to lose by a ton and scoring barely anything.
Idk vs any competent team if you dont make 2s alongside 3 you are not even gonna make 5% of 3s. The only reason a 3 is hard to block is because you have to be careful the attacker doesnt pass through you for a layup. Otherwise good luck making a 3 when your defender is 1 cm away from your chin.
@@wassup4532 have you ever coached or played for or against someone running the system? It's not easy to adjust to. And no offense but Grinnell is doing fine against "competent" teams year in and year out.
@@wassup4532 Grinnell does take 2s, they just didn't in the 111 3-pointer game to go for the record. The System emphasizes 3s, yes, but they do also take 2s when the opportunity presents itself
@@bibbyboi no I dont and for a reason. Ive seen 'only 3s' players that get shut down insanely fast once the defense realize he cant do a layup. Also college basket d3 isnt even a good league, you get lots of bad teams that they get rolled over
@@eter8212 when i watched then i would say the first shot, and fast breaks even from inbound where the special recipe from grinnel (lot of hail mary passes and often just 3-4 defender in the own half).
The opposing teams especially with short rotation, where running a lot especially if the attack with 5 dudes and while the ball handler was under pressure you doesnt get time to rest.
Intresting approach, grinnel implemented it probadly a bit to extreme but they are doing ok in there league and the records probadly helps in recruiting.
crazy u spoke about this, this has been my myteam play style n its efficient from chewing the clock to even stops.
JxmyHighroller never disappoints! Great video again!
The commentary during the 3pt session.
👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
Hahah 🤦🏻🤣
Jxmy ALWAYS coming in clutch when I just made myself some food 🙏
shush
"Phillips...three..."
"OH MY GOD IS THAT A LAYUP HOLY COW!!!"
The commentators lack of enthusiasm tells you how exciting watching this style of play is 😂
I hope David Arsenault III will carry the legacy of that system when David Jr retires as a coach.
3:42 james harden being a flamethrower on the 2027 rockets is wild
Jack Taylor dead scored 137 points in that system and never was heard of after.
Probably cherry picking like Lamelo did in High school for 92 points
@@truthiscensored Nah, he was just the designated scorer. Grinnell, when they decide to bust a record, picks a single player (usually their leading scorer for the year or a senior) to go ahead and do it. He got to chuck 70 threes by himself, pretty much, against a bible college the AD scheduled to fill their non-conference slate so they really couldn't do anything about it. Also, he snapped his arm damn near in half a couple games later, hence why he never came up in the news again. He put up 100 the next year, but nobody cares when you put up 109 the second time on 50% shooting.
Taylor could have played in a tier 2 league overseas, but he walked away from the game to focus on raising his daughter and his faith. he kinda just vanished, but dude was always p religious and i guess he wanted a better platform to talk about religion and stuff than basketball.
It was 138 and he scored 109 once the following year. I think he averaged 51/game.
Great video Jimmy. I about crapped myself when I saw the thumbnail as I live in Grinnell and went to school with the current coach. I’m literally working 4 blocks away from the basketball gym.
ever since my first time playing I thought BB is all about the 3 pts shot. all the other are not for me. love to see these types of feats!
I agree with you. In 1993, I got into basketball because of seeing Michael Jordan do spectacular layups then I saw Drazen Petrovic play and shoot a lot of 3 pointers then I became obsessed with 3 pointers.
Dang 2027 rockets shot 3s like crazy 3:45
Glad they’re a team in Iowa. We finally have something unique.
An Iowan myself, I live 20 minutes away from a baseball field that lies in the middle of a cornfield that MLB teams have been coming to play at these last few years. If you ever have a drive for something unique, go watch one of those games at the Field of Dreams. It's a very special experience.
Great video, brings me back to the early days of Jon Bois' Pretty Good series
it's unfathomable how Jimmy a regular looking dude can cook up so many master pieces so consistantly. Thanks man really making my day a whole lot better.
Regular looking dude LMAO
WTF do his looks have to do with anything??
@@darrengordon-hill it adds shock value for me. No disrespect but it's like finding out the pedestrian looking guy next door was actually as smart as Einstein.
You are the definition of ''quality content'' Jimmy
Imagine being on the bench and standing up for every three
Jimmy's selection of eclectic classical music in these videos is 🔥🔥🔥
Today's Fact: In 1974, a man named George D. Bryson was struck and killed by a taxi while riding a moped; the same day, his brother was struck and killed by a taxi while riding the same moped.
