If we were a 6 seed and beat an 11 in first round
« on: March 24, 2019, 01:28:58 PM »
This is what amazes me.  The week prior to the tournament we beat an 11 seed by 30 points ON THEIR HOME COURT.

Our seeding could have been worse, received a 6 instead of a 5, and played an 11 like St JOhns and won.  People here be bitching?  That’s the luck of the draw in seeding.  Arizona State the same. We would have beaten ASU as well.  So that would have changed things for some of you?

Well if we made the NCAAs in 2018 or we won a game in 2017 or we did something with a 1 and done player in 2016.  Do you see a pattern?

You don't earn "what ifs" by never winning a game in the NCAAs in 5 years.

This isn't 1998.  The 1212 Building has been torn down.  Our commitment men's basketball is without peer.  It is time our coaching position is held to same standard as our nutrition, mental wellness, sleep monitoring, travel, and facilities.

Expecting irrational people to be rational under certain circumstances is where you are wrong.

Otherwise, agree with ya.

We played a team that had its doors blown off by Florida State.
