8 NCAA tournament appearances
2 elite 8s
2 national championships
1 sweet 16 & heavily favored for a third elite 8 Friday vs FGCU

At the top of my head, I can't think of much better.

UF has been good but most of that was in that couple year stretch


Id take Kansas over the past 10 years. Won big12 (which has been better Conference in Bball over the 10 years) 9 years in a row. dont really feel like looking up their other stats. I know they have gotten bounced early a couple times but still would take KU overall

That's an impressive résumé. Michigan St can't get over the national championship hump but they are consistent:
6 sweet 16s
3 final 4s
1 runner-up

Damn really? I was always under the impression Bill Self was bad in the post season outside their title run.

If you make it arbitrarily the last 8 years, then maybe. But it's probably still UNC.

I was kind of surprised by that too

according to Wiki they made it in 2003, 2004, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2011, 2012

Only time in the last 10 years they didnt make the Sweet 16 were 2005, 2006

They weren't. 2000 was the previous appearance before 06 and 07.

You gotta like their chances this year though. 13 point favorite vs a 15 seed then a pick em type game vs Kansas or Michigan.

No national championships so they can't be at the top but an impressive resume nonetheless.

Nine straight 20 win seasons

Three 30+ win seasons

Five Big Ten regular season titles

Four Big Ten Tournament Championships and Three times Big Ten Tournament runner up

Five Sweet Sixteens including 4 straight currently

Two Final Fours

One National runner up

.776 winning percentage
