About Syracuse Orangemen
The 1926 squad was coached by legendary coach Lew Andreas and featured Basketball Hall of Famer Vic Hanson. The school made National Invitation Tournament appearances in 1946 and 1950 and made its first NCAA Basketball Tournament appearance in 1957. The modern era of Syracuse basketball began with the arrival of future Hall of Famer Dave Bing. As a sophomore in 1964, Bing led the team to an NIT appearance and as a senior in 1966, he led the team to its second NCAA Tournament appearance, where it reached the regional final.
Bing's backcourt partner on these teams was future Syracuse coach Jim Boeheim. The Syracuse men's basketball program has made 31 NCAA Tournament appearances, including 4 Final Four appearances and one NCAA Tournament Championship, and the program has also made 11 NIT appearances and won 2 early national championships. The program has produced 2 Hall of Fame players, Vic Hanson and Dave Bing, and one Hall of Fame coach, Jim Boeheim. On March 8, 2008, Syracuse became the first school in Big East history to win 300 regular season games.
