Agreed. I believe they're unquestionably the best college basketball team since the 1976 Hoosiers. They had nine future NBA players. It would have been frightening how good Kentucky would have become if Pitino had stayed. We might be talking about Kentucky as the best program of the last 30 years not Duke.

Yep....look at the run he went on...

'92 Elite Eight(lost to Duke, best CBB game ever)
'93 Final Four(lost to Fab Five)
'94 2nd rd(upset by Marquette)
'95 Elite Eight(lost to UNC)
'96 National Champs
'97 National Runner up(lost to 'Zona in OT)

The '98 team won it all with his players....Pitino honestly would probably have at least 3-4 more NCs....
