We know what you’re thinking: How in the world did UCLA not come out on top? Well, as dominant as the Bruins were under John Wooden, they didn’t even rank as a top-40 program in the 1940s. Meanwhile, Kentucky hasn’t finished lower than 10th in any decade. We’re guessing you’re nearly as shocked by Northwestern’s No. 77 ranking—pretty remarkable for a team that’s never made the NCAA Tournament. But with eight Big Ten programs in the Top 20, the Wildcats have faced some of college basketball’s toughest conference slates for more than seven decades. Just goes to show how much strength of schedule matters. ABOUT THE RANKINGS: Only active Division I programs are listed in the all-time ranking. CHESS (named for the system of rating chess players) considers only a school’s wins and losses. PREDICTOR considers only its scoring margin. RATING is a combination of the two. YRS indicates the number of seasons in which the program qualified for ranking, beginning in 1937-38 (the maximum number is 72). Schools that played fewer than five games against other qualified schools during a season did not qualify for that season, nor did schools that did not field teams or were on NCAA probation. A small penalty was assessed to a team’s rating for every season in which it failed to qualify.
If it were up to me, Wintz would be on a fan scholarship, full ride.

in the end, EMAW will always win.

KU is #3KU is 3rd in all-time tourney wins and top 5 in virtually every other category. Plus we've got the longest active streak for consecutive tournament appearances. Nice try, though.

Did he rough ridin' studder? He said clearly. Would you be less butthurt if he had said absolutely or how about positively? eff you are such a validation seeking bitch.

I hope you really are super rough ridin' rich with your trust fund and absolutely drowning in pussy because your life seems really terrible the way you operate here.

They don't rank in the top 10 all time in wins, conference titles, tournament appearances, or tournament wins and have no national title but are the #6 program all time? I have Gary Parrish and the coaching community on my side and you have this blogger. The #6 program all time can't get a guy from the CAA who has one good March on his resume.

Wow... it doesn't take much to get you riled up. Seek therapy.
