[QUOTE="Dogdeacon, post: 2121726, member: 1026"] That's a good point, largely true. Hot brands like UNLV, UMess, Memphis (see a pattern ;) come and go without ever getting protections afforded UNC, Kentucky and most recently Dook. And its why Pitino or Calipari could only coach at such a school knowing their predilections to bend the rules. UConn under Calhoun could have gotten there but Calhoun was too cantankerous to politic on the inside and suck up to media the way Kryschcdghki does. Ollie a little better at the latter, but doesn't have the gravitas for the former. Did anyone hear Vern L mistakenly say South Carolina moves on to play Georgetown? That's a surefire sign of the stickiness of the Georgetown brand - I think UConn is at least still there. Whether that can fit into someone's blueblood definition or not isn't relevant to me, ultimately its a definition of brand power and value. UConn has the value but not all of the power that UNC, Kentucky, Kansas and Dook have. All that said, blueblood is a cousin to Elite QB to me, an adjective more relevant for trolling fan debate than anything else. [/QUOTE]
