Okay. this thread is for fun. Let's not get too heated over this. It used to be fun arguing on a now-defunct college baseball boards as to whether Florida State (under legendary coach Mike Martin) could be considered a "blueblood" when they had appeared in a zillion World Series and made it to a bunch of title games but never won it all. Same could apply here.
1. Is at least one title required for "Blueblood Status?
2. More than one title required?
3. How many?
4. Can a program be a blueblood with a "decade or so" of high level success without a title be considered a blueblood? How long.
5. Who are your blueblood programs?
6. Who is close but not there yet. (This is the one to work on being friendly) friendly)
Don't bother listing La. Tech, Tennessee, or UConn. They stand above the fray as Royalty, and in the case of LaTech, Dynastic Royalty. Once a blue blood - always a blueblood.
