There was all this talk about "blue bloods" and such after the championship last year but I think a lot of people continue to discredit UCONN basketball. Programs currently in the tournament:
Utah
Gonzaga
Notre Dame
Oklahoma
Wisconsin all do not have anything close to an argument as far as being a better program than UCONN
Louisville and Michigan St are kinda in the same boat. L-Ville had the championship recently and both programs consistently get deep in the tournament but do not have the NBA pedigree or championship success that the Huskies have.
Duke and Kentucky both have pretty good arguments. Kentucky probably a better one. What do you all think? Is UCONN still a top 5 program in college hoops even without the tourney this year? Especially compared to the other teams, some storied, left in the tournament?
