BILLY COTTON

The club shown beside the name is the one this player last recorded a box score for, taken from the stat rows rather than from the player table, because a college roster turns over every year and that column holds only the last club the loader saw. Win and loss are derived from the fixture’s own final score and the side the player was on, not read from the stat row, whose result column is empty on all 2,499,568 college basketball rows; a game whose fixture has no score reads “no result on record”. Three-point figures read two spellings of the same key, so games from one early import are counted rather than reported as zero. A player’s season line is the sum of his box scores, so a game the source never published is missing from it rather than counted as a zero.
