You know, just a random thought. There IS a lot of parity in college hoops, but in the end, the power programs still rule the day (for now). I actually like this. Since 2008:
2008 - Kansas
2009 - North Carolina
2010 - DUKE!
2011 - UConn
2012 - Kentucky
Wow. Those are and have been the cream of the crop for many moons.
Just a random thought.

Re: Parity in College Hoops
Going back to our win in '91, there have been only 12 champions in over 20 years.

Re: Parity in College Hoops
Since the tournament expanded to 64 teams in 1985, the champion has always been from a power conference: ACC, Big Ten, Big 12, Big East, PAC 10, and SEC with one exception. When Louisville won in 1986 they were still in the Metro Conference.
