    Program of the decade? (2000-09)

    A few of us were discussing this in the chatbox, so I decided it would spark a nice debate in a thread.

    Who would you consider the best program of the last decade? There's a few schools that you can make legitimate arguments for.

    UCLA has to be mentioned. No championships but they have been consistently good.

      For me, it's between:

      UConn
      Florida
      UNC
      UCLA

              Rethinking it, I'm going to have to go with UConn on this one.


              Sweet 16's: 1
              Elite 8's: 2
              Final Fours's: 1
              National Championship's won:1

              Record in the tournament: 20-7
              Overall Record: 217-67

              (Stats from 2000 season through 2009 season)




              You could make an argument for UCLA and for UNC. Nobody else really compares. Michigan state was more dominant end of the 1990's and early 2000's

                Overall record 259-58

                They also have a string of 5 consecutive Big 12 conference champions going on, and have won the Big 12 7 out of 9 seasons during the 2000's.

                Not really sure why they are getting overlooked, but that at the very least is equally comparable to all these other elite schools.
                ahh I completely forgot about Kansas. @ me

                      4 Final 4's (FOUR!)
                      5 Elite 8's
                      6 Sweet 16's

                      Overall record: 248-96 (.721)
                      Tournament record: 25-9

                      Not to mention, 12 straight NCAA tourneys, and every player under Izzo has made it to a Final 4.
                      Your tournament results are mixed up..

                      I go by where you finished each year

                      Mich St should be:

                      Sweet 16: 1
                      Elite 8: 1
                      Final 4: 2
                      Championship: 1
                      Championship won:1




                      otherwise, UConn would look like:

                      Sweet 16: 5
                      Elite 8: 4
                      Final 4: 2
                      Championship: 1
                      'Ships won: 1

                      and if you push it back just one more year it's another championship for UConn


                      and Kansas would be:

                      Sweet 16: 7
                      Elite 8: 5
                      Final 4: 3
                      Championship: 2
                      'Ships won: 1


                      and just for comparison, UNC would be

                      Sweet 16: 6
                      Elite 8: 5
                      Final 4: 4
                      Championship: 2
                      'Ships won: 2



                      Since it hasn't been posted;

                      UNC Overall: 199-79






                      Given all those stats including overall records, I would put Kansas at the top for this decade

                        Damn UNC is only 199-79, Pitt is 238-69.

                              UNC
                              michigan state
                              Florida
                              thats the top 3 of the decade.

                              and argath your the only person in the world who would consider teams by that order. Everyone else in the world goes by what round you make it to.
