    We should probably start a Championship Week thread for this discussion. Or else we'll run the UK thread to 50 pages with very little UK talk in it.

    I don't always measure talent by who goes to the NBA. You can be a very good college player but not a good pro. Pearl Washington who played at Syracuse in the 80's is an example. A fine college player but couldn't do it in the pros. But anyway it just doesn't seem like he is getting top players like he used too. I think some of these coaches rest on their laurels just a little after they finally win one. Can't say I blame them. I probably would too.

    Would Wily change the title of this one, then start a purely UK one?

    Georgetown's non-conference wins are pathetic... only one under top 100 rpi.

    Agreed. But once upon a time, Cuse had 10-12 guys in the NBA also.

    BTW, his last 2 classes have been strong.

    That makes more sense actually. Since we are already several pages deep into the discussion here.

    OK. Can a mod change a thread title? Oh well, we can start a new one I suppose but this one is already gone (as far as UK talk goes).
