Reranking the Best College Basketball Teams of All-Time

UConn's victory over the Butler gave the program it's 3rd national championship. This is a feat that has only been accomplished by six other schools. The Huskies latest championship has caused a debate about the program's place in college basketball history. Some feel UConn is now a blue blood in college basketball history, while others think they need to have success under different coaches before they can achieve that status. The 2011 championship run has secured a spot for UConn on this list, but how do they stack up against other historic programs?
