There are plenty of examples of good teams who win in March that don’t have elite prospects on the roster.

Every single team in the final four pays for elite talent.

That doesn't cut it if you want to win the whole thing.

tell that to Butler, which made it to the championship games in 2010 and 2011.

A couple things here. First off this is an outlier year being dubbed “The Blue Blood Final Four” because only 2 one and done led teams have won titles in the last decade+. Secondly there’s a big misconception among our fans as to what is an “elite” recruit. For reference Darius Days was the 39th ranked player in his class, last season Baylor had 0 top 50 recruits on the roster, the champ before that , Virginia’s top ranked guy was 32nd and was again an upperclassmen, they had 0 other top 45 recruits. Houston this season had 0 top 100 players, Texas Tech had 0 top 80 players, Arkansas had 0 top 60 players and all were led by upperclassman. Your rebuttal is this years final 4 teams but theirs is not a model LSU can replicate and besides all but Duke are filled with upperclassman.
