[QUOTE="Deleted member 631370, post: 1360034"] The expectation should be an NCAA tournament team next year (and frankly, we should make the tournament comfortably as a 6-8 seed), and then a top-20 team the following season. That of course assumes a few things: (1) the sort of improvement a team this young and inexperienced (both in age and with this particular system) should demonstrate from year 1 to year 2, (2) no unexpected departures of significance during the offseason, and (3) at least for the 2019-2020 season, solid frontcourt recruits. There is absolutely no reason why this team shouldn't be a tournament team pretty consistently starting next year. With all the returning talent and a full year with this coach and system under their belt, there's no real excuse. But that's just my view of it. [/QUOTE]
