ESPN’s top ten most prestigious hoops programs since 1984-85

I predicted my Jayhawks would come in in the top five, and maybe the top two in this list. I was disappointed to find they ended up at number three. Duke was the obvious number one, but I thought Kansas would edge out North Carolina for the number two spot. I thought North Carolina’s losing season would be the killer for them. Turns out, Kansas’ losses to Bradley and Bucknell in the tournament a few years back hurt them more. In the end, UNC bests Kansas by four measly points!

Of my other top ten predictions, I picked the top five correctly (Arizona and Kentucky being the other two). I correctly picked UConn, UCLA, and Syracuse in the top ten, but sort of forgot about UNLV and Georgetown, picking Michigan State (#11) and Florida (#21) instead. Doh! I really dropped the ball with the Florida pick! Despite being one of only five school to have two NCAA championships in the span, they also had five losing seasons, only four 20-win seasons, and not very many conference titles, thanks to being in the same conference as Kentucky.
