I’m not sure if I’d necessarily agree, but I guess you can argue that given the recency of their success, they aren’t up to Kentucky, North Carolina, UCLA, Kansas or Duke’s level. They’ve undoubtedly surpassed Indiana and those other second tier programs, however.

If anything, UConn is at least in blue blood purgatory.

Kansas’s 22 title certainly helps them bc it gave them 4 but I’ve always looked at them kind of like Michigan football.
All the wins and conference titles in the world but so few titles compared to the other blue bloods and their titles are all so far apart. No cluster of titles together like the other blue bloods.
Not hating on Kansas bc they are a blue blood but I think they are one of the lesser blue bloods which is still great.

I’m ok with purgatory as long as people are saying they deserve consideration. But my observation is this: UConn has won titles with 3 different coaches. What have UCLA and Duke been without wooden and K?
