You would have been just another above average program in the Big 10.
And that's your argument for the Big 8 blowing? Lol
At what point does Nova become a blue blood?

🤣
We all know that Roy and Bill would have owned the Big 10, especially Bill. Hell, he was already doing it in a couple years at Illinois.
I can think of 3 "good" Kansas teams that seasons ended at the hands of Michigan and Sparty.
Cool story. Looking at the last decade, KU’s 6-1 vs the Big 10 in the tourney. Winning by an average of 15 ppg. And they were blowing Michigan out until Elijah Johnson went ******ed in the last two minutes.
Take another lap. 🤣
Ohhhh, that's why Michigan beat you. And MSU ended your season twice, blahahahahahaha.
You wouldn't like playing in the BIG. We would grind that butthole night in and night out
Twice? They won once as a favorite vs a young KU team, then got their asses kicked as a dog a few years back.
You’re terrified of Self joining the B1G. Iowa’s chances of winning their first title since the Carter administration will decrease to 0. 🤣
5-2
You would really hate me if you were in the Big 10. These aren't the rinky dink schools you play. Ask Nebraska.
Maybe when he won 2 titles and is now back in another F4?
No I wouldn’t. I’d love the free wins that Iowa would provide every year. We’re used to teams that have athletes, Wee Man.
LOL @ Nebraska, a perennial bottom feeder in the Big 8/12.
Notice that it took amazing efforts by some of the best teams in the nation to take down the Big 12 in the tourney? While you guys got owned by one lowly midmajor after another. Pussies.😂
I think the 2018 title did it. After 2016 title run, Nova lost early again to 8th seed Wisconsin in 2017. There were questions raised about Jay Wright's 2016 being a fluke run, and that hes still the same choke artist. After 2018 there was no such doubt anymore, everyone just comes to recognize that Jay Wright is a top 5(perhaps top 3) coach in college basketball right now.
And here you are trying to prove your a BB to the board, blahahahahahaha
I would love to play poker with you. Lol
Win two more NCs and then your in and right towards the top of the heap. Until then, you will only be trying to prove yourself.
This subject triggers the hell out of you.
6 Big 10 program in the all time top 25, and not one Big 8/12 school, outside of Kansas'.
Blahahahahahaha
Blahahahahahaha
Responding doesn’t mean I’m triggered, Wee Man.
There’s nothing to prove, Cornholio. We all know it.
😂
Dukedevilz’s top 25 shows 4 from each league. All 4 are original Big 8 programs.
Owned once again. LOL
That’s what I’m saying. Before that first title, he was upset every year. There were some very embarrassing losses in there. What changed? Did he change philosophy? Any major coaching changes? It was it just a case of getting the monkey off his back and it loosened him up?
Vic Bubas, but agree Krzyzewski’s long tenure has meant what was once a question 10-15 years ago now gets them auto included. I think they were ncaa runner up Wooden’s first title
I am struggling here. Where did I ever claim football titles for Kentucky? I think that UK was voted number one by the AP or something in 1950 and that is basically it.
UK sure as hell does not hand banners for Helms awards when they won some, but the Helms awards were retroactive and I feel is an honor but sure as hell not a title.
Oh and those rules did not apply to UNC, Indiana, Ohio State, Kansas et.al.?
You arguments above are rather useless.
If titles were so easy to win back in the day, you would think historic programs like Kansas would have been able to win more.
I don't think anybody's ever equated it to a tourney title. The point was that some people feel like the best teams from that era deserve to be honored somehow, and that's the best we've got. Just like mythical titles in football. For some reason, no one bitches about those.
I wonder why you think that.
Tell me about the stiff competition in the Southeastern conference back then. KU's league routinely produced final four/runners-up and a few champs. Did any Southeastern team other than Kentucky ever appear in the Final Four in that era?
So, yes....it was a bit of an advantage when you're talking about a tournament that only invited conference winners.
When they can prove they are either more than Jay Wright U or Jay Wright wins another ship. Then the convos can start.
You are dealing with the same program that hangs Helms titles like they mean more than YMCA/Rec League trophies.
They won the 1985 national title before jay wright. 3 final 4’s before jay wright. That is more accomplished than duke was before coach K
No one feared Villanova until Jay Wright came along. That 85 Championship was fun but it was a fluke. They were an average to above-average program until he showed up. Definitely not a blue blood.
Ok. Then you need to apply that same logic to Duke prior to coach K then. People started calling duke a blue blood in the 90s. Villanova is ahead of that
You are missing the point. People were calling duke blue bloods when duke just had two natty’s in the 90s. If duke was one then. Nova is one now
Duke was not a blue blood back in the 90s. That is my point. You can call them what you want but until you achieve greatness you are not great.
National media types. Duke has basically been considered one by those types since the laettner era
Very familiar with the era, but I don't remember that at all.
