You tipped your hand in another thread.

Depends on if # of Championships is the be all and end all. # of Final 4s. # of teams from a conference to get to a FF. Maybe overall record/winning percentage. Also if one team has had great Tourney success and the rest of the conference has done absolutely nothing, that doesn't make it a great conference. Different criteria will yield different results. Interested to see your reveal...

The winner is PAC12 with 5 teams and 9 Appearances of the 40 slots available.
UConn-5, Baylor-2, ND-1, SC-1, Texas A&M-1 are the 10 Title winners.

1 or 2 teams dominating a league is not the strength of the league where as 5 programs each making a Final Four is impressive.
To me, if not for the lack of talent in the Big10, the SEC only has 2 teams and 4 appearances in 40 opportunities is REALLY BAD for such a "revered" league and vocal media and fan bases. So maybe this will quiet that lot???

	Title	RU	FF	Total	Tms
AAC	3	0	3	6	1
ACC	1	4	3	8	3
BE	2	3	3	8	3
Big12	3	0	2	5	3
PAC12	0	1	8	9	5
SEC	1	2	1	4	2
Ten	0	0	0	0	0

I think Maryland went to two Final 4s. One in the ACC (2014) and one in the Big 10 (2015).

Id guess Pac-12 the basis of UCONN splitting time between AAC and Big East. ND had several good years in the ACC but I dont think the ACC made a Final Four until 2014.

PAC 12 has had Stanford's run from 2010-2012 plus 2014 and 2017, Cal in 2013, OSU and Washington in 2016, and Oregon in 2019.

AAC was quite weak besides UCONN. SEC missed the Final Four from 2010-2014. Big East disappeared once ND/UCONN/Louisville dissipated. Big 12/Big 10 have been awful the past decade. Gotta be Pac-12.

Worth noting, former Big East would be the clear choice if those 3 teams never left. UCONN was 10/10 for Final Fours, Notre Dame 7/10, and Louisville 2/10 giving them 19 out of 40 potential Final Four slots.

I think Maryland went to two Final 4s. One in the ACC (2014) and one in the Big 10 (2015).

I was so focused on editing the ND and UConn affiliations, validated the Texas A&M and Maryland Championships that I overlooked the Final Fours of Maryland in 2014 and 2015, which lowers the ACC totals and add the Big10 to the board.
ACC 1 title, 4 RU, 1 Final Four 2 teams (Syracuse and ND, neither an original)
Big 10 0, 0, 2 Final Fours for Maryland (an ACC school).

So thank you for the heads-up. I am still thinking the Big10 stinks and benefits GREATLY from Maryland. I now also think that ACC is lucky to have expansion as they too have been pathetic.

The vaunted SEC, having 2 teams qualify for 4 slots is still my pick of disappointment considering all the media and "history" that is touted.

Maryland having a good run this year would certainly energize the Big10 and give added credibility to Brenda given her last 4 departures (1 sweet 16, 3 second rounds) considering that encompasses 2 outright titles, a 3rd regular season title and 2nd place finish in the Big10. That is not exactly stating "we have a strong WCBB effort" for the Big10...
