Sometimes you learn the hard way. They did lol. Did you see the picture of them with their heads all held low? Blocking their face with embarrassment?
That shizt is gold!
I bet you are talking about never again.
Won two championship tournaments in a row but got your ass destroyed in the Maui. Last place.
🤣🤣🤣😭
they had to play at like midnight Eastern Time over there!
Couldn't happen to a better place.
Those tournaments can bite you in the ass or make you look really nice. Most time they bite you in the ass..
 
FYI, UConn is NOT a blueblood! Lmfao 🙄
Their history may not have started back in the 40's/50's like some of the traditional "blue bloods", but they've spanked every blue bloods tail with 6 titles in the past 25 years. Got to give respect where it is due...UConn could be the best program overall in the past 25 years and not sure its close.

I for one get tired of hearing our fans make our claim using seasons that happened 60-70 years ago. Fact is we have won 3 titles since 1979......3 in 45 years. That's nothing to brag about when trying to make a claim as a blue blood.
 
I would say 8 titles and still the winningest college basketball program of all time says we are the bluest of bluebloods. it doesn't matter when we won them, only one school has more titles and most of theirs come 40 and 50 years ago. UCONN is a good program and has raised their status in the basketball world, but still not in the top 20 in all time wins.

I'm not saying we aren't a blueblood....heck blueblood means one of the originals. I am just saying saying you're a blue blood doesn't mean that you've been a top program over the past 25 years. Like I said...3 titles in FORTY FIVE YEARS! I like the direction we are going, loved the first 8 years of Cal, but quit acting like we have been the best in recent history and trying to downplay other schools because they weren't good back in the 50's when we had 8 teams in the tournament lol

For all of their recent success (most of which have been fluky lightning in a bottle championships), they could very easily disintegrate in the conference realignment/NIL era under the wrong coach. If Hurley leaves (and it’s coming soon, maybe after this year) they could easily fall off. Thats why I don’t consider them a blue blood.
 
They aren't a blue blood but they are a new blood, and that's better in my opinion. They don't have the history but they are the most relevant program in college basketball right now, and that's what I care about most. Here's hoping that Pope can bring that crown back to UK.
 
He just needs to go to nba. Going to act like all his losses are something else fault


Just get to nets, wizards or wait for knicks to open up

UConn would have 2 or 3 less championships if we were still using the "conference champion" rule of the 50's

bluebloods are the schools that put CBB on the map in the 50's, 60's and 70's
Uconn is an elite program because of their championships, but they will never be a blueblood
