Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets men’s basketball

The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets Men’s Basketball team represents the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets in NCAA Division I basketball.

The team plays its home games in McCamish Pavilion on the school’s Atlanta campus and is now coached by Josh Pastner. Under the tenure of Bobby Cremins, Georgia Tech established itself as a force in basketball. Cremins led his team into the first ACC championship victory in school history in 1985 and in 1990 he took Georgia Tech to the school’s first Final Four appearance ever. Cremins retired from Georgia Tech in 2000 with the best winning percentage as a head coach of the school. The Yellow Jackets returned to the Final Four in 2004 under Paul Hewitt and dropped in the national title game, losing to UConn. Overall, the team has won 1,352 games and lost 1,226 games, a .524 win percent.
The first recorded official involvement in basketball of georgia Tech was first in 1906, when a small club organized under Coach Chapman. They won just two of those three games they played with that year. Next time Tech had a basketball team, it had been under the famous coach John Heisman, also Tech’s baseball and soccer coach. Heisman needed a winning percentage of .142 that year and improved the group’s percentage to .500 in 1912 and 1913.
Since that time, Georgia Tech has forged a strong basketball program around the strength of trainers like John Hyder and Bobby Cremins, and such players as Roger Kaiser, Rich Yunkus, Mark Price, Craig»Noodles» Neal, John Salley, Tom Hammonds, and Matt Harpring. Georgia Tech became a charter member of the Southeastern Conference in 1932 (the primary year was in 1933) and won the conference title in 1938. Coach Hyder, whose teams won 292 matches in twenty-two seasons, put the program on the national map when his 1955 team defeated Adolph Rupp’s Kentucky team, ending the Wildcats’ 129-game winning streak at home.
