 Long Island University (LIU), now the Brooklyn-based co-flagship campus of the multi-campus LIU system, had been one of the leading men's basketball programs in the 1930s and 1940s, including NIT titles in 1939 and 1941 and two unbeaten seasons under Hall of Fame coach Clair Bee.LIU's glory days would come to an end with the discovery of a massive point shaving scandal.Initially, the scandal focused on another New York City school, the City College of New York (CCNY), which had won both the NCAA and NIT in 1950.
