Lets see..
  1.  The actual floor, with which they do varied things, Florida I know installed it at their home court.  I guess the net would also be an answer.
  1.  Pistol Pete Maravich, and his career record is for only 3 years (froshes played in a separate league at that time).  As well there was no three point line when he played.  Even with these, he crushes the second place dude (by several hundred if I remember right), who played for four years.  I want to say he averaged like 44 points a game, and was estimated to average over 50 had there been the three point line.  That he is #5 on ESPNs recent all time best college players list is a travesty.

Sadly thats all I know without cheating.

It's a Horns' world. Even Aggies play hoops with a burnt orange ball.

Sorry

I thought we were talking about all-time wins, not championship banners. You're correct that UCLA has more championships, but Kentucky has the most overall wins. I believe UNC is second on overall wins.

  1. Who has received the most invites without winning a championship?

Notre Dame with 28 appearances?

Wait

Notre Dame with 28 is correct...link inside

This wiki also shows that Texas is number 4 with most invites without winning a championship.

Good joke...had to read it again

Studying has me brain dead at the moment so I didn't catch it the first time.

You know

what I find interesting every time I see it is that Kansas hasnt won a title since '88...That just surprises me everytime I see or hear it.

I'm like bambi's mom, I take care of you guys!

#6 - Duke or Kentucky?

Duke (85-28) barely edges out UCLA (88-33) with a 75% win percentage.  Kentucky has the most wins at 100, but has more losses with 44.  Of course, Kentucky has also played the most games with 144 so that has to be taken into account.  Still, Kentucky's win percentage is lower than Duke's at 69%.

So if you are talking win percentage the answer is Duke.
