From the dustjacket:
Orange is a color, Orange is a fruit. And when it comes to basketball--that is, Syracuse University basketball--Orange is a state of mind.
Think Orange, and the images of greatness, from Vic Hanson in the Roaring 20's through Carmelo Anthony in the 21st Century, float across the mental screen. Think Orange, and the sounds of glory, from old Archbold Gym to the gleaming Carrier Dome, ring in the ears. Think Orange, and the memories of 1,607 victories, from SU's first win over Cornell in 1901 to its triumph over Kansas in 2003 that won the national championship, embrace the senses.
A basketball has an orange hue to it, and so does the game played by Syracuse University. And now, so many of the stories that have contributed to the phenomenon known as orange basketball come to life in Tales from the Syracuse Hardwood.
Dave Bing, Jim Boeheim, Jim Brown (yeah, he played hoops too) Bouie and Louie, Leo Rautins, Pearl Washington, Billy Owens, and Derrick Coleman. All of them--and other SU legends--join Hanson and Anthony in the pages of this anecdotal anthology of Syracuse University Basketball, which is sure to make the bookshelf of any Orange fan complete....
