30 year Teams

30 years of college basketball means a lot of great players. So who are the best? Here is a team-by-team, conference-by-conference look at my all-30-year teams. I will keep adding to this post as I go. I will of course start with the Big Ten and my beloved Badgers. Each team will have five starters and one 6th man to keep it a challenge. (I am allowing a little positional flexibility.)
