<p style="text-align: justify;">Intro.  Welcome back.  We wanted to use this post to wrap up the loose ends with an endeavor such as this one.  Let&#8217;s talk about our methodology, the teams who were easiest/most difficult to place, the Memphis quandary, and the teams who were on the outside of the top ten looking in.   As always, feel free to disagree in the comments.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Defending Our Methodology.  One of the more interesting things about releasing these rankings [...]</div>]]></description>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Ed. Note: check the category team of the 2000s for our other entries in this feature.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">As we were going through the list of candidates for the top programs of the 2000s, we found that teams tended to fall into similar statistical cohorts.  Among the top twelve programs, we found three such delineations where teams within each group were largely indistinguishable, and our discussions over rankings got more intense as a result.  The group involving #8-#12 was one such cohort, and as we&#8217;ve noted in the comments, the rankings within that group came down to slicing hairs.  The next group where [...]</div>]]></description>

<p style="text-align: justify;">And we&#8217;re back with the second installment of our Team of the 2000s feature.  Just to refresh the schedule we anticipate, we&#8217;ll be putting up #10-#6 this week, and #5-#1 next week.  Yesterday we picked Maryland as our tenth selection (over Gonzaga, Pitt, and several others) and we&#8217;re declaring today that the ninth best program of the 2000s is none other than the Syracuse Orange&#8230;  let the flames begin.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Ed. Note: check the category team of the 2000s for our other entries in this feature.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">We are now seriously in the dog days of summer.  The July recruiting period is over, coaches are on vacation, and the college basketball news feeds have dried up like Hillary Clinton in Kenya.  Even Congress has taken the month off, meaning that RTC has been left thinking up new ways to entertain ourselves while we wait for the cool autumn breezes to arrive.  One idea we&#8217;ve been sitting on since the end of the 2009 NCAA Tournament has been to evaluate the top ten programs [...]</div>]]></description>
