Lets see Marshall basketball:
1 #1 Overall NBA Draft Pick
How many does ODU have
1 Top 50 player to ever play the game (Hal Greer) rated #32
How many does ODU have
Marshall Hall of Fame HC Cam Henderson (1935-55) changed the game as we know it, he invented the Fast Break and Zone Defense, before Cam the offense didn't cross the timeline until the defense of the other team set up on the other side, even though there was no rule saying you couldn't just go right down and score, also the Zone was created when one of the buildings had a leak in the roof and part of the floor was wet and you couldn't set up in man.
What innovations has ODU had on the modern game
Marshall has a National Championship (1947 NAIB now NAIA)
Marshall Wins 1947 NAIB
How many does ODU have
Marshall has Mike D'Antoni who in 2003 completely changed the NBA. before 2003 the avg score for most teams was 74 points per game, with an avg of 5 3 point shots per game. D'Antoni came in and turned the basketball world on its head. Thanks to what the NBA likes to call "Mike's 7 seconds or less" last year the NBA avg score was 119 points and an avg of 32 3 pointers per game
What has anyone from ODU done to radically change the game
Just like Joan C Edwards Stadium, its almost as difficult to come away with a win in the Cam Henderson Center. Since it opened in 1981 Marshall has won 77% of the games there, just ask WVU who is 0-5 in the Cam.
