I'd say Syracuse a a 3rd tier BLUEBLOOD. I would put Villanova over them.

That's just...silly. Nova is a program that has some really good years breaking up a general history of overall mediocrity. As a small private Catholic school, that's almost inevitable unless you're ND.

I'm disappointed a UK fan who, in theory, should be much more interested in basketball than the average SEC fan, would say this.
