[QUOTE="IlliniOllie, post: 1247100, member: 6150"] I'd take Self and his bad losses (and consistent success and NCAA title) here in a second. Are you implying in your second paragraph that we should be happy with being a bubble team, just because we've been bad for so long? And as has been mentioned previously, this "winning isn't the only metric" is the sad-sack rationalization of fans of losing programs. It's entirely hollow and meaningless, and when you're winning, no one cares about that stuff anymore. Peewee leagues, that's fine. Major college basketball, forget it. [/QUOTE]
