Who are the other two?

| I went 1-for-2. I did not realize that DePaul had even been to the tournament in the Post-Quentin Richardson Era. |

Some contenders.
Penn State
Rutgers
Georgia Tech
Boston College
California
Colorado
USC
Washington St
Georgia
Auburn
More than likely some bad misses here. Hopefully I got one of them. |

You got the one that I did, not sure what the other one is yet. GT has been to a national championship game since 2000. |

| The 2nd one would have been in my top 30, but probably not my top 20. |

Ummmm, y'all can clue us in whenever. I have no idea.

Rutgers and Oregon State.
Rutgers was easy. They're bad in everything, all the time. Oregon State is a shock. Until Wayne Tinkle coached them into the Tournament in 2016, they hadn't been since before the first Gulf War. |

I guess the lesson is you are better off hiring AAU coaches than Presidential brothers-in-law.

| Penn State, with Titus Ivory, beat UNC in the early 2000s in a 2d round NCAA tournament game. So they should be glorified forever and be nowhere near such a speculative list. |

That was in 2001. Titus graduated from North Meck in '95, went to prep school, was injured at Penn State, and redshirted. It seemed as if he was at Penn State forever.
Rutgers was easy. Oregon State was the hard choice. They were good when Terry Baker and Mel Counts were there in the '60s and when Charlie Sitton and Steve Johnson were there in the '80s. They did not return to the NCAAs until Wayne Tinkle coached them to the Tournament in 2016, or so.
It's hard to be a P5 school and not win a NCAA game for 2 decades. Your league gets multiple bids and if you make the field you'll be an 11 seed or better.
Unless you're Georgia in 2008. |

This. Always irritates me when some *&%$ says Bob's not that good a coach because he only won in the dance when he had Steph.
