On March 24th, Bleedger Report just dropped a fascinating ranking of 68 college basketball teams loaded with pro talent. They started with a huge list, voted it down while ensuring no two teams from the same schools shared more than one key player, then scored based on NBA and WNBA careers, like total seasons played, all-star nods, and top draft picks. It's not about the best college squads ever, but rosters that look stacked in hindsight. The bottom of the list kicks off with the 2019-20 team from Oregon Women's Basketball, featuring four top 10 picks including Sabrina, Iannescu, and the Sabali sisters who combine for 18 pro seasons and two all-stars. Nearby sits the 1988-1989 Tennessee women, national champs who racked up Olympic gold and early WNBA honors before. The lead even existed. Fans and analysts are buzzing about how these teams dominated college, but shown brightest in the pros, think undefeated 1963, 64 UCLA men with Hall of Famer Gail Goodrich, or North

Carolina squads from 2006-07 and 2011-12 that sent waves of long-term NBA contributors. The depth left the lasting mark, even without tournament runs sometimes. Deeper in, gems like Oscar Robertson anchoring 1957-58 since an addy, Magic Johnson's 1978-79. Michigan State Title Team, and Arizona groups with Gilbert Arena's or Steve Kerr, highlight errors of unreal concentration. Recent entries, such as 2013-14 Kansas, with Andrew Wiggins and Joel Embed, show the talent pipeline keeps flowing strong. This catalog reminds us, college hoops has always been a pro factory, with these rosters proving depth winds long-term battles on bigger stages.
