So what if we lose the next 10?
Barring a rash of injuries to key players, if that scenario occurred Wojo would have more to worry about than fans on a message board. It would also change the fact that the team has been trending in a positive direction which would justify criticism that we have ALREADY seen minus that fact.

Good answer.  Let’s just hope it doesn’t happen because winning is more fun and prevents us from starting over from scratch.

The question was meant to point out the stupid strawman argument the other poster posted. MU will not lose 10 in row.

My argument wasn’t stupid.  Last year we had two winning streaks of 8 games, when we lost some people here lost their minds.  No straw man...reality.

As I am sure you remember, someone posted the seeding of teams that play after the first weekend in March. Obviously winning pre winning March makes the “crapshoot “ easier.

Seriously, did you really need to ask that question?

Goose, the question was less for you and more for others.  Ners just said what it would take for him...three Sweet 16’s in five years.  I’m curious about the rest of the Anti a Wojo’s.  I also don’t understand those bitching about Wojo now for lack of March success when he cannot do a damn thing in March until March arrives.

Side question for another thread.....
Is there a term other than troll for someone who only really gets active on a message board after losses? Other than @$$ H@t I mean.
