I played at Iowa Wesleyan, we never played them. 138 is not uncommon in Iowa.

You sure you're not talking about D2? D3 schools usually have higher academic standards, and they don't offer scholarships, so you have to be close to par academically with the regular student body if you want to get in.
The academic standards for D2 are lower than those for D1, so I'm thinking you're getting D2 and D3 confused.
Pretty sure MIT is the top ranked D3 basketball school at the moment.

Yeah...this. D3 schools usually have pretty tough admission standards. Basketball talent can be pretty "meh" compared to D2 and especially D1, but academically a lot of them are as good or better than D1 schools.
There's some D2 teams and players, though, that can play. Those are the types of schools that usually get the "not quite big enough" or "not quite athletic enough" for D1 players, or guys who didn't have the high school academic requirements to go D1; although the latter is usually when players go the JUCO route. Not saying there aren't those type of players and teams in D3, but the quality of D2 basketball is more legit.
Only former D3 NBA player I can think of off the top of my head is Devean George.

The coach did this to get headlines. He picked a good player on the team and told his teammates to let him shoot as many shots as possible. His teammates aren't bad. There is a guy on the bench that dropped 89 last year. This is what that coach and system does.
He was smart to do this against an inferior religious school. It wouldn't work against someone with superior talent and a worst team would have fouled the shit outta him or someone on the team. Try that on the East Coast.
Again, this was designed. The team he played was horrible.

Re: Division III G Jack Taylor drops 138 points
I used to play with someone like that. He would shoot the ball every time he touched it, regardless of how wide open we were or how many people were guarding him. Major difference was that he completely sucked compared to that kid.

Re: Division III G Jack Taylor drops 138 points
138 on 108 shots? And he made less than half?
Ehh...
