we've made it twice. 100% baby. That's Wooden-esque.
Seriously. How can anyone doubt that Rick Stansbury is an excellent coach after the ups and downs we've had this year, winding up winning an SEC title and getting an NCAA bid with this bunch? He brought them along slowly, and we are peaking at the right time.
I say it buys him 2-3 more years of no tourney appearances. I would say if he went 3 years in a row of not making the tourney or 1 out of 4 like this year was shaping up to be, the next season is do or die.
