Our head coach is a Naismith COTY finalist.

- Check.

We look like the cream of the conference's crop through five tournament games featuring Big ten teams: Purdue struggled to beat Vermont, Wisconsin's in a dogfight with VTech (currently halfway through the 2nd), and Minnesota & Maryland both lost.

- Quintuple check.

Surprisingly, we're still one of only two major conference schools not to have reached the Sweet 16. But at least we've now surpassed Nebraska, which has never won a tournament game.

Time to cross off that goal.
