Message: [QUOTE="cwh20, post: 5334542, member: 13009"] The article states that UConn has more titles than any other program. I’m sorry but that is THE grand daddy of measurements. It should be emphasized that UConn has TWO more championships in the last 25 years than any other program. TWO! As for the criteria, yes the author can emphasize whatever he wants (and it is totally fair to say that UConn hasn’t been as consistent year to year as Duke and Kansas) but the domination of the back to back championship tourney runs by UConn really stands out and should earn some extra credit when weighting this to me. And how about Shabazz and the guys really turning it on once they got past St Joe’s? MSU, #1 Fl (for the second time). Those two wins were more impressive than beating another lower seeded team in KY. I’m still amazed at the free throw shooting by the Huskies all tourney! And yeah, it’s out of range but UConn beating the media darling Dukies in 1999 was so great. 9.5 point underdogs? Hahahaha And just a note but those posters that tried getting the ‘99 team into the mix for this exercise is wrong. Using a this century criteria is fine. And even when taking out the Covid year the list in this thread when including ‘99 UConn had 26 winners. Too many. [/QUOTE]
