I think there is one blue, blue, bluest of the blueblood programs being left off that list.UCLA. Yeah it has been a long time since their last nat'l championship but they have the most of any, so they can't be left out of a blue blood discussion. Otherwise, your list pretty much covers all the true blue blood programs.
UCLA and Indiana should be on any list.
There's another one you forgot.UCONN. 3 NC's in how many years? They need to be on the list.

Ooops. Also forgot.....University of Florida. Singlehandedly infused w/ blue blood by Billy Donovan's 2 consecutive natty championships. OK. Think the list is done now....

Think the list is done now....I dunno, that was like five years ago. They had a nice run last year but I'm not seeing the kind of sustained national success that defines a truly elite program.Also, was I wrong to include Ohio State? Having second thoughts. Back-to-back Sweet Sixteens, their '07 national title appearance and this year's clearly elite team (as long as Sullinger isn't injured) are pretty convincing.

I can take them or I can leave them for the sake of our discussion. I just wanted to be certain we weren't excluding any possible members of the blue-blood society.
Indiana, Kentucky, UNC and UCLA are without a doubt the 4 best. After that it's clearly Duke, MSU, Uconn Syracuse and KU?

I still think there has been one team overlooked, one that may not win the poll, but still should be considered, after all they do have 2 Helms titles in addition to the tournament they won this century....that team is Syracuse.
where's KU? i'd vote for them if they were in fwiw.
Poll
