I realize you could do this for several teams in college basketball and most of those players don't come if Randle/Davis/Young/Gilchrist are still there, but this roster would be stacked.

Davis/Gilchrist would be seniors. They would win every game by 50



C — Anthony Davis
F — Julius Randle/Nerlens Noel
F — Michael Kidd-Gilchrist
G — James Young
G — Aaron Harrison

Bench
Karl Anthony Towns
Nerlens Noel
Willie Cauley-Stein
Andrew Harrison
Archie Goodwin
Trey Lyles
Devin Booker

Imagine trotting out Platoon B of

Cauley-Stein
Towns
Noel
Goodwin
Harrsion

The possibilities could be endless. Even pairing AD/Cauley-Stein/Towns together and having AD play some 3

The upset wouldn't be a if UK lost, because they wouldn't. It would be if the other team could stay within 30 points.

No point to have a season or tournament.

That team would not lose a game, I don't give a shite about the possibility of upsets.

That team is not losing.

A couple of years ago you could have had John Wall, Cousins, Davis Kidd-Gilchrist (and maybe Nerlens) all on the same team.

Though not nearly as good as Kentucky, and a matter if they could stay healthy, but Michigan could have a pretty good starting five on paper:

C - Mitch McGary
F - Glenn Robinson III
G - Caris LeVert
G - Nik Stauskas
G - Trey Burke

I know this is was meant just for fun so my reply might be too serious here but my first thought was

"if AD&Co. had stayed, could you guarantee UK gets the same recruits?"

Not that UK wouldn't have continued to recruit at an extremely high level, but I can't imagine some of those guys wanting to ride the bench.

Guys like AD wouldn't be nearly as good as they are now. You have to take that into account.

Not an impressive point. Top recruits wouldnt stack up on each other like that. I would only go back one year to express "what could have been".
