To me the term blue blood connotes historical significance
It's like aristocracy. It doesn't necessarily mean currently relevant, or recent strength, but rather the names you associate with something historically. I also don't think there are tiers or near misses. You either are blue blood, or you're not.
For me, for college basketball, it's UNC, Kentucky, Indiana, Kansas, UCLA, and Duke.
Virginia obviously has some recent success and a solid program historically - better than ours for sure - but nowhere near that category.
