that's true, but in my opinion, historical success is part of what makes a program a blue blood.
Of course that contradicts Arizona being on that list, but for the last 30 years or so, Arizona has been one of the top programs around, regardless of their lack of FFs/NCs.

Since the year 2000 I would argue that Florida has been a top 3 program behind Duke and UNC. It's crazy how successful that basketball program was under Billy Donovan and seemingly will continue to be under Mike White given that it's a "football school". If I had to pick the ultimate Blue Blood combining both Football and Basketball it would hands down be Florida.

I'm putting more weight on recent history(last 20 - 25 years). Otherwise yes, you could put UC. I'm also looking at who is in contention to win a NC every year. Georgetown was up there but has fallen so far off the map that they do not deserve to be in the top tier IMO. Hell Butler has done more than Georgetown but at the same time Butler doesn't have the financial backing that Georgetown does.
Indiana has a great history but haven't done much lately. That said, they have everything needed to win a NC except a decent coach and that may have changed.Balls of Steele!!
