With eight games remaining in the regular season, Jarvis Varnado is just one block shy of tying Erick Dampier’s single-season record of 106 blocked shots. Oh yeah…. he’s also the nation’s number one shot blocker. As a sophomore. He’s still got some growing to do, and he’ll only get better. Simply amazing.
Dampier also holds the career blocked shots record at State with 249 (1994-96). I’m not sure how many blocks Varnado may have had as a freshman, but expect him to shatter the career blocks record before he’s done in Starkville.
