It's only a blueprint if it can be followed by multiple teams each year.     And that is not possible.  If a team tried to copy UK this year but did not get Anthony Davis would it have been a national championship contender.  Nope.   Only one team can get Anthony Davis.
 
At the end of the day,  if your going the one and done route as a program, you still need that super elite prospect to put you over the top.   And there are only one or two of those players each year - so its not really a blueprint that can be followed by multiple teams.
 
The best thing to happen would be if some program tried to do the exact same thing as UK with one and done prospects... dilute that talent base so that while both teams would be good (neither would be the best).   Other programs can continue with the mix of short and long term players.    Our 2010 team was not based on MC'D's and alot of our 2012 team was solid recruits that were fit for the system.
