NorCalCoug Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 Only Kentucky and UCLA have more titles. I doubt too many on this board were even alive for most of UCLA’s championships. Hell, that’s probably true of half or more of Kentucky’s. Meanwhile, all of UCONN’s titles have been won since 1999. 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow that’s amazing. They’ve basically won a quarter of national titles over the past 25 years. Under three different coaches too. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everybody got blown out by these two Schools. 2 Quote "We don't have evidence but, we have lot's of theories." Americans Mayor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their coach was already halfway out the door before the tourney even started. They were obviously content with themselves with winning that first game in the tourney and their hearts weren’t in the next game. As soon as Purdue started going on a run and presented them with some adversity, they just flat gave up from that point on, getting outscored 85-44 over the final 29 min of the game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure why anyone would cast stones. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USU picked a bad night to have an off game against a top seed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebels2k3 Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 UConn became a blue blood under Calhoun but people never accepted them because they were deemed an "outsider." Same with Gonzaga. Some people just can't accept change 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
