Is U of L even Elite?


Sure, Kentucky basketball has been down. I blame this mainly on Mitch Barnhardt for being too lazy to hire a real coach. However, how dare U of L claim to be "Elite". How dare they compare their second rate program to that of UNC, Kansas and UCLA.

Fact 1 - U of L has not been to the NCAA finals since 1986 (nor won a championship since then). That is a 23 year dry spell to say the least.

Fact 2 - U of L has only been to one Final Four in since 1987. Wow, that is now where close to that of UCLA, UNC, Kansas, Duke or Kentucky!

How can you call a team with only one Final Four appearance in the past 22 years, Elite?

Hmm seems that they trying to push themselves up to appear to be more superior than what they are. Or maybe they going with the attitude of if you believe it, it will happen?? but what do I know about sports lol
