Message: [QUOTE="sutomcat, post: 4197026, member: 27"] I have seen some of the episodes. It is nicely done. Some of the interviews and characters involved are excellent. Kind of shocking how awful basketball was for these schools until they decided to get serious about basketball and got help from outsiders (mostly from the Northeast) to show them what basketball was all about. The quality of the videos from the 1950s and 1960s is not good. Reynolds Coliseum was going to be sized like Cameron Indoor until Case got involved (construction was stalled during WWII due to lack of materials). He convinced them to make the arena a lot bigger. I think it was originally 12K, which was huge by ACC standards. Case was from Indiana and had far loftier expectations than most from the area. I hope a day comes when Syracuse is featured prominently in the next set of these. We have got to get the program turned around ASAP. [/QUOTE]
