You’ve probably heard by now that a dude by the name of Jack Taylor scored 138 points in a Division III basketball game last night. Taylor, a 5’10” sophomore guard for Grinnell College (Iowa), jacked up 108 shots, 71 from behind the three-point line. As the world struggles to wrap its head around how a single player can even take 108 shots in a 40-minute game, the best place to gauge the pulse of a nation is always Twitter.
With Jack Taylor’s name trending for almost an entire day, there was no shortage of tweets about his incredible performance. Here are the funniest of the lot.

Some kid named Jack Taylor scored 138 points in D3 basketball. Who was guarding him? Hellen Keller? — JT Toton (@JTToton) November 21, 2012
How do we know Hellen Keller didn’t get after it on the defensive end back in her day?

Look out for Jack Taylor’s remix of “Stay Schemin’,” entitled “Stay Shootin’,” dropping soon.
Five years from now, Jack Taylor will put “Scored 138 points in a college basketball game” on his résumé. The interviewer will laugh at him.

If I played with Jack Taylor… Him and I would’ve combined for 138 points last night.

So you’re saying Jack Taylor doesn’t enjoy passing?
While Jack Taylor was busy scoring 138 points, I scored 2 points to bring my career total to 4. I guess you could say we both had big nights
