Despite 5 natties and a 6th on the way, it never feels to me that UConn is regarded as a “blue blood” like Duke, NC, Kansas, KY. Maybe not even AZ, Gonzaga, UCLA.
Do others see it this way?

The UConn women without a doubt are a blue blood. Pretty sure the OP is talking men.I would vote yes as a blue blood, but when Gino retires, all bets are off! That’ll be the true test imo. Lasting blue bloods can sustain success through coaches. Not sure UConn will be able to, but who knows.

Big East is considered a power conference. Had the 2nd highest rating this year. And still has 3 teams left.They do schedule a hell of a non-conference game schedule but don't play in a Power 5 conference.
So, they roll up win totals and load up for non conf games. Their NCAA tourney record speaks for itself, however.

Uh….okI would vote yes as a blue blood, but when Gino retires, all bets are off! That’ll be the true test imo. Lasting blue bloods can sustain success through coaches. Not sure UConn will be able to, but who knows.
I knew Illinois was in deep do-doo when the game was still close at half…I think they shot 10% from 3 and won by 30 thats great defense
Yup.The UConn women without a doubt are a blue blood. Pretty sure the OP is talking men.
Actually UConn recruits very well.They have not really recruited at the BLUE level consistently.
Analysts put a lot of importance on recruiting when labeling programs.
Of course that whole aspect of college sports has shifted overnite as NIL has become a huge factor in creating mature teams that are flourishing in the tourney.
