The Biggest Losers: Sixteen DI Schools Suffered Most Setbacks Last Season
September 1st, 2014 - 15:40
More than 130 NCAA Division I schools, 16 of them last season, have incurred their most defeats in a single campaign over the previous seven years. Boston College, which compiled the worst record for a team upsetting the nation's top-ranked club (Syracuse), was the only power conference member in this category and Temple fell out of the ranks of universities never to lose at least 20 contests.
No major college has an all-time high for setbacks lower than the 16 losses incurred by UNLV. Elsewhere, Nebraska never has won an NCAA playoff game but the Huskers have also never incurred a 20-loss campaign. Additional schools never to lose at least 20 games in a single season include Boise State, College of Charleston, Connecticut, Duke, Illinois, Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan State, North Carolina State, Oklahoma, UAB, Vanderbilt, Villanova, Virginia Commonwealth and Western Kentucky.
Fairfield's Sydney Johnson, who coached Princeton when the Tigers incurred their most defeats, joined a long list of coaches who were bench boss when two different DI universities suffered their most setbacks in a single season. Other mentors in the category include: Murry Bartow (East Tennessee State/UAB), Bill Bayno (Loyola Marymount/UNLV), Bob Bender (Illinois State/Washington), Horace Broadnax (Bethune-Cookman/Savannah State), Mitch Buonaguro (Fairfield/Siena), Jeff Bzdelik (Colorado/Wake Forest), Barry Collier (Butler/Nebraska), Ed DeChellis (Navy/Penn State), Matt Doherty (North Carolina/Southern Methodist), Marty Fletcher (Louisiana-Lafayette/Virginia Military), Billy Gillispie (Texas-El Paso/Texas Tech), Ron Greene (Indiana State/Murray State), Tim Grgurich (Pittsburgh/UNLV), Dick Kuchen (California/Yale), Press Maravich (Appalachian State/Louisiana State), Dan Monson (Long Beach State/Minnesota), Danny Nee (Duquesne/Nebraska), Kevin O'Neill (Northwestern/Southern California), Ken Trickey (Iowa State/Oral Roberts), Bob Weltlich (South Alabama/Texas) and Randy Wiel (Middle Tennessee State/UNC Asheville).
Nearly one-fourth of the current active coaches have the dubious distinction of holding the school single-season record for most reversals. But they can take some comfort in the fact that revered NCAA title mentors such as Jim Calhoun, Denny Crum, Jud Heathcote and Mike Krzyzewski are in the same classification. Following is an alphabetical list of NCAA DI schools and the rock-bottom season or seasons when they sustained their most setbacks (TBD with coaches denotes "to be determined"):
