Message: [QUOTE="SWC75, post: 196852, member: 289"] How important is it to win more than one championship? Is winning the national championship like getting into the Hall of Fame or winning an Oscar- it doesn’t matter if other Hall of Famers are better or if others have one multiple Oscars- you’re a member of the club! Or is there a ranking or pecking order within those groups, such that you still aspire to achieve more? I’m not sure but I decided to look at the number of NCAA basketball tournament championships won by the various schools and compare them to their all-time tournament wins to see if there’s some that looks wrong about where we are on the list. 11 titles: UCLA (99) 7 titles: Kentucky (105) 5 Titles: Indiana (60), North Carolina (102) 4 Titles: Duke (94) 3 Titles: Connecticut (46) , Kansas (85) 2 Titles: Cincinnati (40), Florida (42) , Louisville (60), Michigan State (52), North Carolina State (32), Oklahoma State (38), San Francisco (21) 1 Titles: Arizona (43), Arkansas (40), California (19), CCNY (4), Georgetown (45) , Holy Cross (7), La Salle (11), Loyola-Chicago (9), Marquette (34), Maryland (38), Michigan (42), Ohio State (45) , Oregon (12), Stanford (21), Syracuse (52), UNLV (33), Utah (35), UTEP (14), Villanova (49) Wisconsin (21), Wyoming (9) We are the last of the teams that have won the title once to have won it. We’ve won more NCAA tournament games than any of the others, (although Arizona, Arkansas, Georgetown, Marquette, Maryland, Michigan, Utah and Villanova also have distinguished records and only one title). We have more NCAA wins than all but two of the seven teams with two titles and also more wins than Connecticut, who has three wins. I think we should have more national titles than CCNY, Holy Cross, Loyola and UTEP. Maybe we can move up this year- to where we belong. [/QUOTE]
