Message: [QUOTE="bballnut90, post: 5140385, member: 2117"] I’d say Tennessee and UCONN are the clear top 2, both in terms of titles, title game appearances and Final Four appearances, not to mention longevity and consistent success. Below them I’d put Notre Dame and Stanford, both of whom have had consistently strong runs for 25-30 years and a couple of titles. Then there are a lot of “next tier” programs including: -Baylor who effectively had a great 15-16 year stretch under Kim but has dropped off -South Carolina who is in the midst of a great stretch but it has only lasted a decade so far. If Dawn racks up a couple of more titles I think they solidify their place in the grouping above. -LSU who had a solid 6-7 year run in the 2000s and has transformed back into a national power under Kim -LaTech who was dominant in the 80s and 90s Other notables: -Maryland has been excellent for about 20 years and won a title -Louisville had a great stretch from 2009-2023, level of success appears to be tailing off though -Duke was an elite program in the late 90s/2000s and remained relevant through most of the 2010s -Georgia had a great 20ish year run under Andy Landers -Marsha Sharp had a strong 15 year run at Texas Tech and won a title -Iowa has had strong streaks throughout their history under multiple coaches [/QUOTE]
