We've been invited to the big dance 30 times. Now list other schools with that many invites.
We've won 40 tourney games. List the others with as many.
We've won a conference title every 3.62 years since we started our program.
We are nowhere near Aggies basketball program, tradition speaking.

Arkansas has been 29 times. 17 teams have been 29 or more times.
Let me put this in a way you can understand: Relatively speaking in comparison to other programs in the respective sports, A&M has a better football history than Atkansas does a basketball history. Higher on the wins list, bowls, all-americans, etc. Arkansas fans talk about our football program like it has sucked forever, but you get mad when I say a relatively weaker program in a different sport is just historically ok?
You also have to consider that there is no consistency in Arkansas' basketball accomplishments. They largely sucked for 50 years save 4-5 years, had a nice run from the late-70s to the mid-90s and have largely been irrelevant since. 23 of your 29 appearences came from 1977-2002, with only six appearences in the other 65 or so years.
