Only because they jumped from 142 to 130 because they beat us. That 135 cutoff is real tight and would require Rutgers to do better than their current Big Ten record of 3 conference wins in a season. I'm going to go ahead and say this is a Q3 loss when all is said and done. We do need to get some more quality wins, but this loss is also not a bubble buster.

Assuming Ken Griffey Jr. is one?

Why are you limiting it to just the Tim Miles era?

Best 5 wins: #33 at Indiana (Q1) #56 vs. Seton Hall (Q2) #57 at Clemson (Q1) #63 vs. Creighton (Q2) #69 neut. Oklahoma State (Q2) Worst 5 6 losses: #142 at Rutgers (Q3) #65 at Minnesota (Q1) #24 at Iowa (Q1) #20 at Maryland (Q1) #11 neut. Texas Tech (Q1) #5 vs. Michigan State (Q1) The Big 12 had worse loses than Rutgers on their resumes and they were fine. Practically everyone but Iowa State was given respect by the selection committee. But we still have more work to do in getting more quality wins on our resume.

'NUff of this nonsense - 72 discompOSUre of the middle B1G - 66 12

Easy. Playing in the same conference as Kansas who always won the sole bid in the Big 8 even when we had tourney winning worthy rosters, then shooting away the few good chances we had under Nee when the tournament expanded.

It's worthwhile reminding others that we have fully paid off Eichorst and Riley. And I'm pretty sure Pelini is fully paid off by February. I guess what I'm trying to say is...

Maybe we'll have a situation like when Danny Nee lost the team and they band together and win the NIT [NCAA tournament game].

In the regular season???

Shoulda done this two years ago Quite the timing of AD changes, huh?

Maybe this would allow us to get a 2-for-1 deal depending on how this baseball season shakes up.

Personally I'd prefer to avoid hiring someone from a dirty program.

Serious question. For those with this position, would it be better to make the tournament and lose (or not make the tournament at all) or Miles gets our first tournament win? Seems the latter would just be "kicking the can" if it's a coaching problem.
