You’d be bitching and moaning about all their early exits. Go look at Villanova’s last decade.
You know who is another odd ball program that had a strange little run?
DePaul -
they were like top 5 for a few years in the 80s and always seemed to be among the elite when ppl talked about contenders
media LOVED that coach too (blanking on name- Myers?) ....
but DAMN if they didnt manage to lose early and badly every year in the tournament....hell I THINK they helped give Chaminade their giant killer reputation (plus Virginia)
And o can’t remember one dick whistle that played for them — Terry Cummings maybe?
their NCAA tournament losses were-always to teams like .......Grambling or Texas South-Northern or maybe IUPIUI-PUI......
then they just went away for good -
Maybe I dreamed all that ****
