I saw someone on Twitter call them "the New York Giants of college basketball," and I think that's pretty fair commentary-- they're not in it every year, but goddamn if they don't have a knack for closing the deal when they get a clear shot at it. It's unclear yet whether Hurley will rip off the twenty-year stint that Calhoun did, but winning a title is obviously as good a start as one could ask for, lol.

And yeah, there are very, very few schools in the history of the NCAA that would trade histories with UConn. Even fewer if you just go with the modern era of the tournament.
