[QUOTE="UrbanaIsTheShiz, post: 1193123, member: 583558"] yeah I agree with a lot of that. Minny program definitely botched the fire/hire with Smith who is a very good coach, even though the momentum there understandably felt a bit stagnant. I think "expecting" sweet sixteens is reaching. it might be fair to say you expect to make the tournament 3 of 4 or 7 of 8 years, and perhasp to say that in 5 of 6 appearances you expect NOT to be the victim of major first round upsets (assuming you are a 6 seed or higher). beyond that, like almost all sports playoffs (with the exception of 1 seeds in the tourney) most anything can happen and the second weekend is generally a crapshoot. What we'd do for McCamey. Probably even Chet (I loved that kid). [/QUOTE]
