Overview
- Bleacher Report’s multi-article series, published Wednesday, ranks 68 college teams through a staff vote that used a no overlapping cores rule and a 68-to-1 point system.
- UConn’s 39-0 2001-02 champions lead the list after sending seven players to the WNBA, including Sue Bird, Diana Taurasi and Swin Cash, with 30 combined All-Star nods and 10 titles.
- UCLA places near the top with the 1973-74 men at No. 3 featuring Bill Walton, Jamaal Wilkes and Marques Johnson, and the 1968-69 men at No. 4 led by Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.
- Duke’s highest entry is the 1991-92 men at No. 19 with Grant Hill and Christian Laettner, and the 2010-11 men follow at No. 20 behind future All-Star Kyrie Irving.
- The ranking counts only NBA or WNBA careers and weighs how many pros each roster produced, how long they played, and honors such as All-Star selections and Hall of Fame inductions.
