  • Frank Selvy’s 100 Points: The Greatest Scoring Night in NCAA History

    Frank Selvy’s 100 Points: The Greatest Scoring Night in NCAA History
    Feb 13 2026
    On February 13, 1954, Furman’s Frank Selvy did the unthinkable: he scored 100 points in a single NCAA Division I game, leading the Paladins to a 149–95 blowout win over Newberry College inside Greenville’s historic Textile Hall. In an era with no three-point line, Selvy poured in 41 field goals and 18 free throws, finishing with exactly 100 thanks to a legendary long-range buzzer-beater.In this episode, we dive deep into the story behind college basketball’s most unbreakable scoring record. We trace Selvy’s journey from a hard-edged mountain kid in Kentucky to a scoring machine at Furman, then drop you courtside on “Frank Selvy Night,” the first live televised college game in South Carolina.


    You’ll hear how his coach and teammates decided to feed him the ball all night, how Newberry tried—and failed—to slow him down, and how the crowd reacted as the point total climbed into the stratosphere.We’ll walk through the game quarter by quarter: the early hot hand, the third-quarter grind, and the fourth-quarter avalanche that turned a routine conference matchup into basketball mythology. Then we follow Selvy into the pros, his time as the No. 1 overall pick, his years with the Lakers alongside Jerry West and Elgin Baylor, and the famous NBA Finals shot he narrowly missed that still haunts barstool debates.Finally, we explore why Selvy’s 100-point night still matters today. We break down why this record has stood for decades, how it compares to Wilt Chamberlain’s 100 in the NBA, and what it tells us about volume scoring, opportunity, and the changing nature of college basketball.Whether you’re a college hoops diehard, a Furman fan, or a sports history junkie, this episode brings the greatest scoring outburst in NCAA history to life, possession by possession.

  • Olympic Luge Death Cover Up: Nodar Kumaritashvili

    Olympic Luge Death Cover Up: Nodar Kumaritashvili
    Feb 12 2026
    On February 12, 2010, just hours before the Vancouver Winter Olympics opened, 21‑year‑old Georgian luger Nodar Kumaritashvili crashed at nearly 90 miles per hour on the world’s fastest track at Whistler.

    His fatal training run stunned the world, shook the Olympic movement, and forced an entire sport to confront the price of speed and spectacle.
    In this episode, we travel from the snowy hills of Bakuriani, Georgia, where Nodar grew up in a luge family, to the towering ice walls of the Whistler Sliding Centre, a track already whispered about for its terrifying speeds.

    We unpack how a young athlete chasing his first Olympic dream ended up on a course many insiders feared, and how one catastrophic mistake in Curve 16 changed everything.

  • A Year Later: My Son’s Journey and the Future of Daily Sports History

    A Year Later: My Son’s Journey and the Future of Daily Sports History
    Feb 11 2026
    Today, I’m stepping away from sports history for a quick personal update and a heartfelt thank you. It’s been a year since my last show update—and what a year it’s been. Last time, I shared that my infant son had undergone open-heart surgery. Now, as he nears two years old, I’m grateful to say he’s doing incredibly well. His strength, resilience, and recovery have changed how I see this show and the community around it.In this episode, I talk about what this journey has meant, how Daily Sports History helped me through some tough days, and where I’d like to take the show next. I’d love your feedback on what kinds of stories you want more of—iconic, well-known sports moments or the hidden chapters of history that shaped the games we love today.If you’ve ever taken the time to listen, share, or message me—thank you. It means more than you know.
