Book Description
Basketball wasn't invented at Kansas, but basketball tradition was. The 1997-98 season marks the 100th year of hoops at the school where James Naismith taught, Phog Allen coached, Wilt Chamberlain dominated, Danny Manning performed a miracle and Roy Williams wins like no other coach in the college game. It's been a century of national championships. All-Americas, Olympic heroes and remarkable games. A Century of Jayhawk Triumphs relives the top 100 victories in the program's storied history. Accounts of a 1923 encounter at Missouri that ended with 16 jump balls, the 1952 thrilling comeback victory over LaSalle that guaranteed a KU Olympic team and the 1988 NCAA final with Oklahoma that produced the game's greatest half are among the games detailed in the book. Boxscores and headlines. Comments and quotes from those who coached and played in some of college basketball's most memorable games. A great gift for any fan of Kansas hoops.

A must-have for any Jayhawk basketball fan. December 11, 2000
The rich tradition and history of Kansas basketball is captured in this book. If you are a fan of Kansas basketball, the book is a "must-have." Many of the stories I had heard from my father and grandfather, both KU basketball fans, were rekindled in reading this book. And, many of my own memories, which had grown hazy as the years past, were revitalized by reading this history.
