The University of Maryland Terrapins men's basketball team has been one of the most successful college basketball programs in the country since hiring Coach Gary Williams before the 1989-1990 season. Since the hiring of Williams, the Terrapins have gone to twelve NCAA tournaments, including eleven straight from 1994-2004, highlighted by the school's first Final Four appearance in 2001, and its first national title in 2002.
