Worst team in the history of college basketball

For statistical purposes, the NCAA ranks 326 non-provisional Division I schools. Savannah State is 324th in free-throw percentage (.581), 325th in scoring margin (minus-24.0), scoring defense (81.4 points allowed) and field-goal percentage (.353), and dead last in assists (7.7).

In other words, there is nothing flukish about this . There are no compelling coulda-woulda-shoulda rationalizations for a handful of nailbiter losses. It's a legit 0-24.

I know we had a godawful first half of the year, but with games against Syracuse, Pitt, Maryland, and Texas, among others, there's no reason for our strength of schedule and RPI to be so bad... unless these guys are dragging the ratings down:

11/11 at No. 23 Memphis L 102-40 0-1
11/13 at IPFW L 71-60 0-2 (0-0)
11/21 Hampton L 70-52 0-3
11/23 at Lipscomb L 83-64 0-4
11/27 Jacksonville L 73-67 0-5
11/28 South Carolina St L 80-52 0-6
11/30 at Norfolk State L 76-49 0-7
12/2 at Eastern Kentucky L 87-59 0-8
12/6 Lipscomb L 71-56 0-9
12/11 at Jacksonville L 84-62 0-10
12/13 at South Carolina St L 77-55 0-11
12/15 at The Citadel L 81-58 0-12
12/18 at Tulane L 74-55 0-13
12/20 Eastern Kentucky L 80-64 0-14
12/28 at Georgia L 100-69 0-15
12/30 Mercer L 98-81 0-16
01/3 Bethune Cookman L 73-64 0-17
01/5 Norfolk State L 81-50 0-18
01/8 TX A&M Corp Chris L 85-55 0-19 (0-0)
01/10 The Citadel L 70-47 0-20
01/13 at Baylor L 86-50 0-21
01/15 at TX A&M Corp Chris L 88-54 0-22 (0-0)
01/19 at Georgia Southern L 79-53 0-23
01/31 Georgia Southern L 92-64 0-24

They are truly so completely, wholly terrible that the only thing I can feel for them is pity. I don't know if they would manage a win in DII.
