Is Jodie Meeks Kentucky single game scoring record in danger this season?


For the second time in 2 months, the UK single game freshman scoring record has been broken.  First, Doron Lamb poured in 32 points with a barrage of 3's.  Last night, Terrence  Jones did everything to break that and score 35 points.  With this guns blazing offense that Kentucky has this season, I start to wonder if Jodie Meeks single game scoring record of 54 may be in danger before the end of the season? 

Doron Lamb could get hot from beyond the arc and light a team up for 55.  Brandon Knight also has the potential to get in the zone and score in bunches.  Terrence Jones , however, has the best opportunity in the future to break the Meeks record.  Unlike Lamb and Knight, Jones does not have to be super hot from beyond the arc to score.  He can pound the ball inside.  Jones could take his man off the dribble.  If the defense gets smart and pushes him outside, then he has the ability to light it up from there as well.

I'm not saying that these guys will break the record.  I'm just saying there is a chance with the likes of Terrence Jones, Doron Lamb, and Brandon Knight.  I hope to see it, if for nothing else to buy a new "Witness" shirt! Go Big Blue!
