CBB Reference College Basketball Reference has made a significant update to its historical data

3 Upvotes

Thanks to the efforts of the indefatigable researcher Dave Quinn, College Basketball Reference has made a significant update to its historical college basketball data.

The update includes the following:

  • Statistics for 1,081 season-level opponent's statistics
  • Additions to 182 player season statistics
  • 39 first names added or updated
  • 29 heights added
  • 27 player season stat lines added
  • 21 team or opponent season totals updated
  • 1 erroneous player season removed
  • 1 last name fixed

The bulk of this update was in team opponent statistics. This data has been complete on our since back to 2009-10 for some time. Additionally, it is substantially complete in officially tracked categories going back decades further with a notable exception. From 2001-02 through 2008-09 the official NCAA reports were often missing opponent stats due to a format change. This update does a lot to remedy this as we now have ~half complete opponent statistics for the period from 2002-03 through 2008-09 (with a lot more still missing in 2001-02).

New Baseball History Youtube Series

6 Upvotes

Hi,

I created a Youtube channel about baseball history and wanted to share. The first two episodes are out now, new episodes drop every Thursday at 12pm ET. The first season is a 10-episode run, with more to come next spring.

I wanted to embrace two core ideas with this series: baseball is for everyone, and baseball is romantic. I use a lot of public domain archival sourced from libraries and archives - and I hope this series also helps shine a light on these important community resources we all have access to.

So if you like to nerd out over really niche baseball history, this might be the series for you. 

Thanks for watching!
