    It shows there were no powerhouse teams in college basketball this year. Florida, Virginia were #1 seeds yet lack NBA talent except for Patrick Young.

    Last 15 years, how convenient when UCONN won in 1999. Why not say since 1980? OH, I know why, because Duke and UNC won just as many as UCONN. I think Florida winning back to back in 2006/2007 is even more impressive than what a team did over 15 years.

    UCONN has a great college basketball program but lets not get crazy! I think it's a safe bet to say the Huskies won't be repeating. Even though I can't stand Calipari, I have to say they just might be their again with the kids he has coming in. Duke, UNC, MSU, Kansas, Kentucky and Louisville all have outstanding programs. Hats off to UCONN, enjoy it and I be waiting anxiously for next year.

    UConn will fall off big time in the next couple of years. Ollie still hasn't proven he can recruit the players Calhoun did. This was his team. Could be a Tubby Smith like story, win with someone else's players, then do nothing. Plus, UConn's recruiting will be hurt because they play in a shit conference.

    Oh I don't know...maybe because winning 4 in 15 years is a much more significant accomplishment than 4 in 34 years?

    Couldn't disagree more with this. Ollie was an excellent recruiter for Calhoun...not to mention he already has a nice incoming class for next season. Kids are going to love playing for him...
