What Men's SWAC teams have never made it to the NCAA Basketball tournament?
Ironic that we never made the NCAA's, but we the last men's basketball team from the state of Louisiana to win a National Championship in Basketball.
Wow, I guess that is something a SWAC head coach can say to a recruit, "We made the NCAA tournament".
L, all you have to do is be the best team in the worst college basketball conference.
Florida by 45 points. I just hope they don't ruin that kid's NBA chance.

Hey MB, tell me more about this,please..
Well, according to the NCAA selection committee, FAMU and Niagra are the worst 2 teams in the tournament.
As soon as I saw this thread, the first school that came to mind was Pine Bluff, i wonder why.
Not since receiving the name PB, but AAM&N won championships in the SWAC. Little RED was a Motherucker:jump:Has PB won a SWAC championship in any sport?
not since the 50's.Has PB won a SWAC championship in any sport?
1967.not since the 50's.
1967.

Now that's sad. Say Sprem, you care to explain this why you're ridin Florida's gonads?
Do you care to explain why you think JSU has a chance against the defending national champs?
This is a pointless thread. UAPB has been in the SWAC for 10 years. They made the jump from NAIA to D1. Schools like SMU entire program has recovered since their football program got the death penality back in the mid-80s (20 years ago). I wonder if their conference affiliates are downing them about the same?
However, the fact is UAPB hasn't been the the Big Dance and every SWAC representative that has gets blasted. So really, what is the accomplishment?
Good luck JSU and represent the SWAC well.
Frat, every SWAC rep has not been blasted. SU played Duke respectable just last year and they were a number 1 seed. TxSU was free throws away from sending your homeboys from Arkansas to a living hell when they won it all. JSU and SU teams in 93 did the unthinkable........they won their first round games in the NCAA and NIT. And even in the second round after being down by 10 in the first half. SU played George Washington and 7'2 Yinka Dare even for the rest of the game. Not to mention the scares Alcorn put into folks back when they went. When I was at SU we played respectfully in the tourney with current Mavs coach Avery Johnson leading the way. So the SWAC has not always been drubbed in the Tourney. Florida is good and sure they are the defending champs, but it isn't like they are invincible. Hell they may just be ripe for an upset. On paper.......yes they should beat JSU by more than 10-15 points. But you just never know what might happen.
