Hugh Durham is the first and only coach in the history of NCAA Division I basketball to lead two different schools to the NCAA Final Four for the first and only time in each school's history. No other coach in either school's history has been able to duplicate Durham's achievements. In 1972 at the age of 34, Durham led FSU to the NCAA Championship game coaching against Adolph Rupp, Dean Smith and John Wooden in three consecutive NCAA Tournament games. Durham's Seminoles knocked off Rupp's Kentucky Wildcats and Smith's North Carolina Tar Heels. In the NCAA Championship game, Wooden's UCLA Bruins edged the Seminoles to win the title. Wooden, Rupp and Smith combined to win 16 NCAA Championships in their careers. Durham is the only coach in NCAA Division I history to be the all-time most successful coach at three different Universities. His career spanned five decades at Florida State University, the University of Georgia, and Jacksonville University. In 1966-67, Durham signed Lenny Hall who was the first African-American basketball player at Florida State University. In 2003, Durham became only the 32nd basketball head coach in NCAA Division I history to win 600 career games.
