    The last shot...

    I don't think it's the same - and honestly, Wisconsin was worse than this one. The thing with the Laettner shot is that it's not really the shot but the whole backstory. It looked like the program could have been destroyed during probation, like Carthage and SMU football. It wasn't clear at...

    Glass half full post. Sort of I guess

    This is the best post on the board. All you can realistically hope for is to be a contender - to be in the hunt. The tournament is random, and Cal's record has been great. Dean Smith had the best program for 25 years, and won 2. K has won 5, but he's been there almost 40 years, and lucked...

    please dont worry about our seeding

    Of course seeds matter - they matter a lot. It's so much easier statistically coming out of a 1 seed slot. The two big dividing lines are (1) 1 vs 2; and (2) 3 vs 4. We're not going to be a #1. But... our goal should be to get at least a 3. From there, our path is 14>6>2. That's a lot...

    Goal for Year - 3 Seed or Higher

    We were also a missed 3 pointer away from losing that game - I'd rather just not play 1 seeds. Each round we can avoid playing them is a round where they may not even advance.

    Goal for Year - 3 Seed or Higher

    I don't know - I think KU, UNC, and Oklahoma are a level higher. I'd rather take my chances with the 2 seeds - and of course there's a progressively greater chance with each round that those 1s will drop out. I don't see a big difference b/w 2 and 3 for us. But I do see one either below 3 or...
