It is indeed impressive Winston. But I don't think it beats UCLA's 10 championships in 12 years, including 7 in a row. John Wooden was a giant. (Both as a coach and a person)
And, for the record, I take it that everybody acknowledges Wooden's string of championships as basically the most impressive record in college hoops...though, of course, it was a different time, with fewer teams competing, fewer teams in the tournament, etc. It couldn't be repeated under current conditions, by anyone...but still amazing.
No, the women's tournament has 64 teams, I believe. The talent in women's CBB concentrates to only a few teams unlike in men's CBB where there's more parity. I take it that's in part why UCONN women are as successful as they are.

OK Winston. Dean was a giant too, in both respects.
There we go...

Good point.
I guess the same could be said for Geno Auriemma's UConn women's program. I don't think they have 64 in their tournament.

Makes sense. Thanks, A.
