but let's not forget what this tournament was about. Winning a tournament game is nice, but this year was really about experience.
Kind of a silly statement when the best basketball players never stick around long enough to employ that experience at the college level.

There are two types of team that can make a run in the tournament, ones with talented one and done players and ones with seasoned experience. Teams like UK that can recruit an entirely new team year in and year out with good results are the exception not the rule.
Lets take last year's tourney, UCONN won, despite not playing a freshman for more than half the game and was led by a senior. Florida and Wisconsin also made the final four with experienced teams.
Even this years UK team, which is loaded with Freshman, plays 3 upperclassmen more minutes than anyone else.
So experience is still important in college basketball.
