Success of blue bloods and others, past 20 years tourney wins

[W2R]

Stole this from the main board but very telling. Main thing that sticks out for me is Duke. Duke has had success when they advanced past sweet 16 but very little the rest of the years. The bold and italic post is from a a Kansas fan, UCONN and Duke have titles. We all want those but we are tops in most categories


Last 20 years:
1) UK (56)
2) Duke (49)
t3) Kansas (46)
t3) MSU (46)
5) UNC (45)
6) UCONN (44)
7) Arizona (39)
8) Florida (35)
9) Louisville (32)
10) Wisconsin (30)

Last 15 years
t1) Kansas (38)
t1) Duke (38)
3) Kentucky (35)
4) MSU (34)
t5) UNC (32)
t5) UCONN (32)
7) Florida (28)
t8) Arizona (27)
t8) Louisville (27)
10) Wisconsin (26)

Last 10 years:
1) Florida (25)
t2) Kansas (24)
t2) Kentucky (24)
t2) UNC (24)
5) MSU (23)
t6) Louisville (22)
t6) Duke (22)
8) UCONN (20)
9) Wisconsin (19)
10) Ohio State (18)q

Things of note IMO:
- Most people would probably assume MSU would be higher in all of these (not taking anything away- what Izzo has done is amazing)
- I would bet most people would expect Kansas to be lower on these.
- Kentucky at or near the top in all 3 is very impressive considering these years include some major "down years" by UK standards
- Surprised Duke is so low in the last 10 years although there isn't much of a gap. a nice run next year could put them right near the top.

The last 15 years is what I have been going by. I never really give thought to NCAAT wins, but I think it all comes down to how many Final 4's you been to and titles you have won. In this case UConn and Duke are having the best run by far.winning the Championship 3 times each.

We get in these discussions about who are the real blue bloods; I think that 10 year and 15 year chart above is as good of proof as any who they are.

Kansas numbers have to be wrong. They're chokers and they play in a bad league.

We are at the top in all three. Good to be a cat

Hey man, I couldn't figure out how to email you so I'm doing it this way. I am sorry your name was brought up as though you were me. Like you, I hate pissing matches, but there is one guy who baits me all the time. I let my thoughts get the best of me and said what I thought of him. You and I have always been cool and I want to keep it that way. Lek is the guy I can't stand and he's the only one. He once posted a picture of Jesus and put the words on it saying "jesus says your a fag" since that day I've disliked him. I never intended for you to get confused with me. You know I'm a good poster because we agree on so much and I'm truly sorry they confused you for me.
