I figured we could have some fun and maybe learn a few random trivia in this thread.

Who is the only player to have played at both NC State and North Carolina?

Bonus question: What school did he later coach at?

3/29/2013 7:36:14 PM

John Edwards?

but seriously, is it Buzz Peterson?

^ no and no. Not Vic Bubas either.

3/29/2013 8:15:15 PM

i wasn't sure about Peterson, but i was certain it was Edwards

3/29/2013 8:45:33 PM

Is this where I remind TT that buzz PLAYED at unc -ch, ASSISTANT COACH at State, then HEAD COACH at ecu? Or did I ruin a future trivia question?

3/29/2013 9:06:54 PM

you didnt ruin it, because he coaches at Wilmington, not ECU

3/29/2013 9:10:45 PM

Which former unc-ch coached at ecu? Swore it was buzz

3/29/2013 9:12:41 PM

Lol. Was it lebo ?

3/29/2013 9:14:11 PM

Thank you, Donny

3/29/2013 9:15:31 PM

No one knows the original question?

3/29/2013 11:07:33 PM

This thread is full of fuck

3/29/2013 11:09:33 PM

herb sendek, coached at asu

Horace Albert "Bones" McKinney played at NC State for two years but stopped due to having to serve in World War II, then played one year at North Carolina after returning. He would later become the head coach at Wake Forest, where he won two ACC titles, and would take the Demon Deacons to their only Final Four in 1962.

What former CBS announcer played on that Final Four team?

UCLA owns the record for most consecutive Final Four appearances with 10 straight from 1967 to 1976. What two schools are tied for second, and what years did they accomplish this feat?

Billy fudgePacker

3/30/2013 12:55:05 AM

motherfucker said "Bones"

3/30/2013 1:33:09 AM

Well that was what he mainly went by.

3/30/2013 9:08:24 AM

Cincinnati (1959-63) and Duke (1988-92) with 5 a piece

3/30/2013 1:46:14 PM

Here's a clever query: when did jiggles get mad, bro?

3/30/2013 3:11:33 PM

Correct on Billy Packer.

Correct CHunter2.

What coaches have won the NCAA tournament in their first year coaching their teams?

[Edited on March 30, 2013 at 3:35 PM. Reason : ]

This coach is notable for having been the first to play a lineup of 5 black players which he did in 1961. He played 4 black players when he won the national championship. During that championsip run his team beat Tennessee Tech 111-42 which still remains the largest margin of victory in NCAA Tournament history. This championship team is also the only one from the state of Illinois.

I hope I gave enough hints.

3/30/2013 3:33:12 PM

Not

3/30/2013 3:34:08 PM

I think its southern methodist but I don't know the coach

I meant Texas western but I'm still wrong

[Edited on March 30, 2013 at 4:14 PM. Reason : .]

3/30/2013 4:11:43 PM

That was my guess but western Texas (utep) isn't in Illinois

3/30/2013 4:24:39 PM

Indiana State

3/30/2013 4:41:06 PM

the only school in illinois to win a legitimate title (I think Illinois tries to claim one of those Helms Titles) is Loyola Chicago

I have no idea who the coach is

3/30/2013 4:50:12 PM

Coach Crayola?

[Edited on March 30, 2013 at 4:51 PM. Reason : .]

I had to look it up but I won't post the answer.

This is what most people will use

3/30/2013 5:49:24 PM

Loyola is the correct team and they were coached by George Ireland. In 1963 they defeated two time national champion Cincinnati in overtime 60-58 on a last second tip-in by Vic Rouse. Had Cincinnati won they would have been the first school to have won three straight titles.

What school was the first to win back-to-back national championships?

As for the earlier question of which coaches won national titles in their first year coaching their teams, Ed Jucker first did it at Cincinnati in 1961, Steve Fisher did it at Michigan in 1989, and Tubby Smith did it at Kentucky in 1998. Fisher was promoted to interim coach after head coach, and UM alumnus, Bill Frieder took the Arizona State job during the last week of the regular season. AD Bo Schembechler told him to leave immediately and promptly promoted Fisher.

San Francisco?

[Edited on March 30, 2013 at 6:00 PM. Reason : nope, looks like they were the 3rd team to do it]

3/30/2013 5:59:15 PM

UK

3/30/2013 6:12:23 PM

Nope UK was the second team to repeat as national champions back in 1948 and 1949.

This team was nicknamed the Aggies until 1957.

3/30/2013 6:42:47 PM

Notre Dame

3/30/2013 7:13:46 PM

Oklahoma State University.

3/30/2013 8:03:30 PM

Who was the only team to score over 100 points in a National Championship game?

3/30/2013 8:04:23 PM

Runnin Rebels over Duke

3/30/2013 8:08:28 PM

How many jerseys hang in the rafters at the Dean Dome?

3/30/2013 8:13:45 PM

One hundred billion. Who cares about those fags?

3/30/2013 8:17:03 PM

Everyone that's ever played for unc-ch has their jersey hung

3/30/2013 8:19:22 PM

Yeah, when you have over 45 jerseys hanging in the rafters, it's a little ridiculous.

Btw, it's 47. That's is absurd. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honored_North_Carolina_Tar_Heels_men's_basketball_players

3/30/2013 8:22:55 PM

so, this is obviously ACC and North Carolina-related trivia, right?

3/30/2013 8:23:12 PM

What university does Len Elmore hold a degree from other than Maryland?

3/30/2013 8:49:00 PM

He got a law degree from Harvard. I'll admit I had to look it up. I wonder why no one ever mentioned it, not even him. Bilas loves to talk about his law background.
