A goal nobody talks about

To me, any one of 10 teams could win the Big Ten tournament. Why not us? Let's be playing our best basketball in three weeks and play in that game that is on just before the selection show. This is my personal goal for this team.

Much better chance of getting to the sweet 16 than winning the BIG championship. That’s how tough this league is

we most certainly can make a run depending on matchups. I think we just are too caught up in worrying about getting that road win out of the way
