Where does Ryan Arcidiacono rank among the all-time Villanova greats?

Huuuuuuuuuuump Daaaaaaaaay! Damn, I cannot believe I'm just a couple of days away from Houston. This week is flying and that is usually not the case with regards to me and anticipation.

One story caught my eye last night - Nicole Auerbach of USA TODAY penned a good piece about how Jay Wright believes Arch is one of the greatest Villanova players ever. Not shocked to hear Jay say that, and I'll even admit Arch is winning me over with this run.

But I am curious to hear some thoughts on the topic (and yes, I know I'm risking a flame war in the comments). 'Great' is such a subjective term. Arch and Chef have won more games than any other Villanova player - so by that mark they are the greatest to ever wear the uniform. Do you look at stats? They are solid, but hey aren't HOF material in my opinion though.

The one thing he and Chef can do - win a National Championship. Not many have done that and as the leader of the team, it'd be a big boost to Arch's resume and I doubt you'd hear much argument about his status as one of the greatest ever.

And now, the "news."
