We had some interesting dialogue about who or what constitutes a blue blood.
I found a website that deals with AP rankings historically. Each week serves as a single ballot. So by finishing ranked 7th this week, we would receive 19 more points in the poll.
Where is your dividing line between what is or is not a blue blood? Recent versus historical? Can you lose blue blood status? Is national titles or constant performance without the titles more important?
Oh no. This again…
Depends if the school had traditional students
Ah so we’ve reached this point in the season lol
I figure between UHLaw97 and UH1927, we could keep this going for weeks.
Do they have a Greek system?
Need a title or 5
Let’s win the next 5
Months.
All time list is suspect just with cow manure U, being ahead of us, what have they done to even be where they are in this so call all time poll of this guy or service or whatever it is? It’s a sick joke
I don’t agree with that scoring. A championship only worth twice as many points as a Final Four?
That scoring would be like saying, if a Final Four is “awesome” a Championship is “really awesome”.
I’m pretty sure a championship would feel at least 100x more awesome than a Final Four appearance. There would at least be a string of curse words involved.
If bluebloods had hierarchies like kings, princes, dukes, etc., we’d be a count or a baron. The kings are UNC, UCLA, Kentucky, Duke, and Kansas. UCONN is a maturing prince while Indiana is a prince with hemophilia. Then you have Louisville, Villanova, and Michigan State. We’re probably in there somewhere with Arkansas, Purdue, Michigan, and a few others. Our case would get a boost from winning a championship.
oh gawd dam…the blue blood debate again…
the scoring system is definitely off, but I like the idea of it. It paints a decent picture of who have been the most successful programs
It might just be all fine to have this new thread if…
Anyone from the never-ending-one that had something to say a certain threshold of times (maybe 10 posts or more) could just completely (voluntarily) LAY OUT on this one!
I suggest that since I think - for any of us that read through the older thread - we ALREADY have heard PLENTY of perspective/opinion from those “select” highly active posters in this topic.
It would be preferred (imo) to recognize that repeating the same things ANOTHER 30 more times isn’t ideal.
