The men's college basketball offseason offers an opportunity not only to reflect on the previous season, but to look back at nostalgic moments in the game's history. But sometimes those conversations are complicated by a boundless time frame. How can one compare players or teams from the 1980s to players or teams from the past few years? The game has changed -- dramatically -- and that makes it difficult to have any fruitful conversations.
Which is why we've decided to launch a series that focuses only on the past 25 years of men's college basketball. Any team, player, coach or moment that was part of the sport between the 1998-99 and 2022-23 seasons is eligible.
