Message: [QUOTE="Hopkins16, post: 4648078, member: 3893"] Teams filled with 5 star all Americans can be intriguing and interesting, but it has been proven that it does not make a championship. Kentucky's multi million dollar teams, pre NIL and currently is a good example. Kentucky's unibrow team won it all while all others have been very disappointing and many fell short before reaching the sweet sixteen. Duke and Kansas I believe did a little better but not what was expected. Most of these studs are only in school for a year and mindful of their stats to be a lottery pick - not a winning formula. All that being said NIL is only a small part of putting together a winning team. To win it all a team needs a good coach, an experienced team with 3 to 4 star players who will stay in the program for 3 to 4 years, a 5 star stud or two each year. Jay Wright's winning Villanova teams is a good model. [/QUOTE]
