31 wins in a bad conf is not ridiculously impressive.

And while I agree post season success doesn't make a season, you HAVE to at some point win in the post season. mick hasn't. He just hasn't.

I mean the floor this year given the 2-seed should be Sweet 16. Elite 8 is justifying the seed at least and F4 is beating the odds. Given what happened in the region, Elite 8 was even more reasonable to expect.

Yea bc we saw how great both those teams are.

It was a sweet16 or bust type or year. They failed. Mick failed.

really with this draw it was elite 8 or bust. it would NEVER set up easier than it did.

not saying I'm not disappointed in how the season ended. I am!! But I'm not willing to fire the coach and roll the dice with someone's hot assistant hoping he does better and then he leaves for a P-5 job if he does.

he's not going to get fired and who knows if we could even do better.



but his ceiling is starting to show. this team was far too good for what happened today. way too much talent.

Fair enough but it was a 32-8 run to close the game. In a tournament, and a region where the top seeds were going down, there was absolutely NO EXCUSE for the collapse. NONE.
