Pete Maravich for one.
"In only three years playing for his father at LSU, Maravich scored 3,667 points — 1,138 points in 1968, 1,148 points in 1969 and 1,381 points in 1970 while averaging 43.8, 44.2 and 44.5 points per game. In his collegiate career, the 6' 5" (1.96 m) guard averaged an incredible 44.2 points per game in 83 contests and led the NCAA in scoring in each of his three seasons. He was a three-time All-American and, more than 35 years later, many of his records still stand.
Notably, his 3,667 points don't factor in the 741 he scored his freshman year (at the time, freshmen were not allowed to play on varsity teams) or the fact that he did not have the benefit of the three-point line (instituted much later)."
