For all those who base their opinion of the program solely on NCAA tournament results, here are the early tournament results of a coach who took over a loaded program coming off of a national championship runner-up:
1st year: Elite 8
2nd year: 0-1
3rd year: 0-1
4th year: Elite 8
5th year: Natty
After those two one and out seasons, would you say that program was in a bad place, or that the guy couldn’t coach?
We are finally in a great place as a program since the fallout of that coach leaving cleared. Losing in the first weekend sucks, but, the program is headed in the right direction, and, it’s not like there is nothing to show for the past two years.
So proud to be a fan of this team and excited for what the future holds!
