Do you even read this drivel you post?  :rolleyes:

[B]Syracuse Basketball hasn't had a losing season in FIFTY YEARS.  [/B]
And counting.

The "downturn of the program" was clear -
from '80-'82, with 2 straight NIT's, and a losing conference record 1 year, and .500 for the other.

The "downturn of the program" was clear -
the first time we got hit with sanctions in the early 90's.
Then J-Dub led us to a Final Four championship game (I still think his 5th foul was pretty ticky-tack), and an eventual resurgence.

The "downturn of the program" was clear -
after GMac graduated, and we went to 2 straight NIT's.
One of those seasons was 'only' a .500 conference record.

I forget who posted it (and kudos to them for doing the research), but for this past decade, Syracuse will go to: 
[B]7 NCAA's, 2 NIT's[/B], and 1 ban.
[I]With TWO Final Fours this decade.  [/I]

vs. the [U]typical average for each of the prior decades[/U] - [B]of 8 NCAA's and 2 NIT's. [/B]
[I]With 1 Final Four in each decade.  [/I]

The "downturn of the program" is clear.     :rolleyes:
