Publisher's note

The most innovative and dynamic collegiate basketball program in history, featured in the new, exciting, and completely original Sports by the Numbers series

THE TEAM: The Louisville Cardinals changed the game of college basketball. Two NCAA titles, eight Final Fours, conference championships in three different leagues, and 18 All-Americans are the heritage of U of L hoops. Louisville invented the slam dunk and the high five, and brought into the college game a free-wheeling, breakneck-pace of basketball that was played along 94' of basketball court and well above the rim. From Wes Unseld through Denny Crum's Doctors of Dunk and Darrell Griffith, to Rick Pitino's return to coach the Cardinals, U of L set the standard for championship play. The Sports by the Numbers franchise unlocks the history of the most exciting college basketball teams ever by providing fans with a unique and captivating look at a basketball team that made us all think we could go vertical 48" from the foul line and slam home a reverse dunk while wearing Cardinal Red.

THE FORMAT: The presentation created by the authors distinguishes Sports by the Numbers from everything else available today. University of Louisville Basketball is composed of ten chapters, each offering one hundred numbered "mini-stories"-facts, anomalies, records, coincidences, and enthralling lore and trivia. Each chapter begins with an introduction that highlights the many exciting stories detailed in that chapter.

INTERACTIVE: Numerical entries tagged with SBTN-All Star or SBTN-Hall of Fame logos are scattered throughout this book. These logos indicate that more information is available at our web site www.sportsbythenumbers.com. Readers and sports fans can then visit our site and participate in the SBTN blogs and conversations regarding those numbers, creating an interactive community.

Sports by the Numbers books are not just for diehard sports fans, but for every fan and sports history reader who loves sports and wants to know more about their heroes and favorite teams.

About the Authors: Daniel J. Brush, David Horne, and Marc CB Maxwell, also known as the Sports by the Numbers Guys, are the award-winning authors of the Sports by the Numbers series. Other titles include University of Oklahoma Football, New York Yankees, Major League Baseball, and NASCAR. Keith Gaddie is a professor at the University of Oklahoma, award-winning broadcast journalist, and author of eleven books.
