Question

Let's go back to when we all started watching this tournament together, 1990 when UNLV beat Duke. This question isn't about before but since.

Is Butler's back-to-back Final Four trips the most unlikely accomplishment we've witnessed?
Understandably, George Mason's run in 2006 was amazing but for a Horizon League team with a school enrollment of 4,000, I don't think we can undersell how unbelievable this really is.

Discuss...

Others considered: Duke over UNLV in 1991 Arizona in 1997

EDIT: Outsde the top 30 in KenPom efficiency on both offense and defense. It's an unwinnable argument but I'd pontificate that Brad Stevens is the best coach in the nation.
