To This Point- Where does this team rank all time?

[Fishy]

I posed this question in the chat and it was met with mixed reviews. I understand the story is still being written on this season, but to this point- where does this UConn team rank all-time vs. other UConn teams? With a final four appearance in hand and the way we demolished everyone in our path in the tourney, have they cracked the top 10? Top 5?

IMO you can’t put them ahead of any of our 4 title teams, but they are probably as or more impressive than any of our other teams that didn’t win it all. What does the Boneyard think?

No. Just, no.

Please stop.

In terms of the significance of their accomplishments, I'd have something like:
1999
2004
2011
2014
2009
2023
1990
1996
1995
1994
2006
2002
1998
...


In terms of, like, who could beat who on a given day, it's more like
2004
1999
2009
1995
1996
2023
2006
2011
1994
2002
2014
...

I'd place 90 just below the 4 Natty's - that season and what that team accomplished led to all that came after. It put us in the National spotlight. Without that you don't get Donyell, Donny, KO in 91-92. Or any any of the great recruits that eventually allowed the 95, 96, 99...

I'm going to go out on a limb and say that this is clearly the best team to date of the Hurley era.
