re: Is Kentucky a Blue Blood?

Why is it stupid? Don't you have to win a championship at least once a decade to be a blue blood? They are now on whatever level Indiana is. A once proud dynasty slowly rotting away...

This is silly.

Theoretically it’s been 5 down years (roughly).

Outside of that Kentucky has won championships with 5 different coaches. They’ve won an NC in every decade since the 1940s sans the 60s, 80s, and the 00s. And they had a Runner-Up in the 60s. They’ve had at least 1 Final Four in every decade since the 1940s. By your definition, no one in CBB is a blue blood.

It’s a rough patch right now but it’s not anywhere close to the claims that we’re Notre Dame/Nebraska or even Indiana Basketball.
