Message: [QUOTE="Sherman20, post: 3427903, member: 6357"] Even though Nova and UConn beat us in # of national titles, I’d argue that Syracuse was long ahead of both in terms of overall program. But the gap has def been closed. Cuse should have at least 2 (ugh 1987!), if not 3 titles (1989, 1996, 2010 or 2012). We have 6 Final Fours, all since 1975, the most of any school in the Northeast and mid-Atlantic. Over the past decade, UConn has fallen back while Nova has risen. Gtown had been in the mix but they’ve dropped a lot. Right now Syracuse and Nova are def the best programs in the Northeast-Mid-Atlantic region (north of the Carolinas), with UConn fading back to Gtown territory. Most Syracuse fans love Jay Wright, btw, and miss our old BE battles. As a kid I attended at the 3 OT Big East tourney championship victory against Nova in the Dome in 1981! And I was at the 1989 BET championship against Nova in the Garden when Sherm won MVP. [/QUOTE]
