[QUOTE="21ChampaignSt, post: 2056346, member: 748616"] To an extent. Be a top 25 team most of the year, make the tournament, and advance to the second round is a safe baseline, IMO. But that can't be [I]all[/I] we ever do. We need to exceed those standards every few years. Of course, there will be years where we fall short as well. We have a really strong history which should lead to lofty expectations and high standards. No reason to shy away from that. BU doesn't. *I don't have a strong opinion on how often we should be in the Final Four. I think once every 30 years is probably not good enough. But I'm not sure how many more than that we should reasonably expect? Once every 15 years? Not many programs can get there on any kind of consistent basis. [/QUOTE]
