It's weird that UConn always seemed like the little team that could, with a number like that.

No argument on that point.

We could go back to inventing the game if you would like, is that history long enough?

Alltime wins are choking as well, tell me more...

Cool, Kansas has 5 more years of playing college basketball than Kentucky.

I’d hope they have more wins.

Where did your best coach in history come from? Show a little respect. Perhaps Carolina could chime in as well.

UConn is ridiculous. They won a NC as a 7 seed and beat an 8 seed to win another... there were other years they'd go like 8-8 in conference and go to the FF or win a NC. I think at least twice they missed the tournament one year and won a NC the next.

Yeah, UConn’s wild.

They’re as close to blue blood without being blue blood.

They always seem to have a top point guard.

I thought Syracuse would be on that list.

They vacated all of their first weekend choke jobs.

Congrats on going 5-4 in the last month and beating the one almost top 20 team.

Congrats on never winning a championship in any sport :-)

Im tired of ppl saying college basketball is down. Ive heard that every single year since 1995. This is the deepest field I can ever remember. The difference between 1 and 20 is negligible and thats due to all the experience and talent present. The reasons for that is now teams can grab top transfers easily to fill out there team, anyone can still have the 5th covid year and with the exception of maybe 4 or 5 players that go to the gleague ignite the one and dones aee all still present. College bball has never been tougher. My only gripe is there are just too many teams.
