Last week, I turned on the TV and decided I was going to scout Markus Howard. I have watched a little of his game at Marquette. Little did I know I was going to witness history.
The night before (November 28th), Howard led Marquette to a 73-63 win over Davidson. He dropped 40 points on 11-26 shooting, 5-10 from 3-point range. He would top that off with 51 points the next day in a 101-79 win over USC, while shooting 14-24 from the field and 9-17 from three.
He became the first player in Big East conference history to score 40 points in back-to-back games.
