They played basketball since 1901 and won their first championship in 1999.

They were mostly absent for the entire 20th century. How is that a blueblood?

So essentially, if your first title was won within the last 50 years, it’s impossible to become a blueblood

What is the arbitrary timeframe? When UConn wins their 12th national championship in 2049, are we still gonna say they’re not a blueblood because they didn’t start racking up championships until much later than the other guys?

People should just come flat out and say it’s impossible to become a blueblood if that’s the criteria. If by the year 2050, Georgia has 12 CFB national championships to Texas’s 4, i would probably laugh at someone saying “well Georgia isn’t a blueblood like Texas!”

but you think Indiana is a blue blood even though they haven’t made a final four in over 2 decades? While UCONN has won 5 titles during that span?
