When the history books talk about the moments that have made the FSU basketball program, the first 40 seasons will be defined by one magical year when the Seminoles came within five points of beating the sports’ greatest dynasty for a national title – and a total of just three appearances in the NCAA tournament over that span.
Over the last 32 seasons that include this one, the Noles have gone to the madness of March nearly half of that time (14 appearances) that include five appearances under former head coach Pat Kennedy with the highlight being an Elite Eight appearance in 1993.
