What makes 1999 more relevant than 1995 or 1994?
It's just a time frame. Nothing more/nothing less.
Nebraska used to be dominant in football. The same for ND.
Indiana and UCLA were dynasties in bball.
none of them are relevant today.

Basketball is much less dependent on "natural resources" than football. Nebraska is always going to struggle to get back to being a national power in football because their 200 mile recruiting circle just doesn't have players in it.
Basketball, if you have financial support and the right coach, can turn into a Top 10 program in 18 months almost anywhere. "Local ties" in recruiting are nearly non-existent, especially in comparison to football.

Of course they are relevant today.
The difference in programs who have had sustained success over time in basketball, is those programs have always been willing to fund their programs and win. It is also that you seem to hold certain programs to higher standards than others. 3/4 of the SEC would kill to have the basketball resume listed below for UCLA and Indiana over the past 23 seasons.
UCLA has been to 4 Final Fours since 2000. Their latest was 2021. They have also been to 4 Elite Eights, and 12 Sweet Sixteens in that same time frame (last 23 seasons).
Indiana has a National runner up, final four, Elite Eight, 4 Sweet Sixteens, and 13 NCAAt appearances in that timeframe (last 23 seasons).
