  1. I was spending some time thinking what type of player we would get if everyone were to come back

     

    I thought of 5 type of players for the one spot:

     

    Glynn Watson type PG

    Erick Strickland type lock down defender able to slash to the basket

    Eric Piatkowski sharp shooter

    Isaiah Roby type stretch 4

    Derick Chandler rim protector

     

    My choice would be Strickland.  

     

    Really couldn't go wrong in your choice.  Now, it appears we have 2 spots.  My 2nd choice would be rim protector.

  2. I said in the game thread that the team quit.  That wasn't the case.  The effort was there.  I think we had a game plan to start to let them chuck up 3's.  Once they started hitting.  We had no answer.  If we got up on them, they would drive by us.  If we backed off them, they would nail 30 footers.

     

    We needed the Texas A&M team who lost to Vandy.  And, the Nebraska team who beat Purdue.  Instead we got the Texas A&M team who beat Iowa State.  And, the Nebraska team who lost to Creighton.

    I had this "if not now, then when" feeling tonight. Keisei got hot, we got up 7....then got steamrolled. I am beyond defeated. Creighton is good for a tournament win every year. NW has 2 in the last 2 years. Rutgers has a win in the last 3. Oakland, MI wins one. St Peters. FDU. At this point I'm ready to give in to the fact it'll never happen.  

    I am very defeated.  7 1/2 months will roll on.  I will be back next year just as optimistic.   Right now, I see another let down.

    I’m not so sure. That year we made a run at the end to get in. I felt good about our chances this year in early January.

    Our non con schedule was so much tougher that year.  We played a 3 seed, a 5 seed, and a 6 seed all away from home.  We also got hot this year down the stretch.   If not for our 7 - 2 record down the stretch this year we are very much on the outside looking in.

     

    I'm just frustrated at how this season ended.  I don't want to wait another 10 years to try again.
