If anyone has a chance, the book published by ESPN in 2009 is the most informative basketball book I have ever read. About 3.5 inches thick, and just full of information. At the end, Sagarin ranked the best programs ever by each decade. Kentucky was the only school ranked in every decade. The 2010s were not included, but based on every metric UK was a clear #1 for 2010-19.

UK's ranking for each decade:
1940s #2
1950s #1
1960s #5
1970s #4
1980s #5
1990s #1
2000s #10
2010s #1
