It's extremely frustrating

losing, right now, knowing that we are at the threshold of being great. However, at the same time, I have that knowledge that we are almost there. This season will have some growing pains.

Well the seasons getting close to being over. Let's just make the best of it, maybe get in the NIT or CBI, and work our butts off in the off season.

 

[KurtRambis4]

No doubt.

We'll continue to fight.

We're not getting in the NIT. Hell, a winning record in conference play would be something to shoot for. Haven't had one since 2011. Haven't had an overall winning record since 2012.

Which, coincidentally, is the last

time your average SPS watched college basketball.

A winning record in the SEC would place us safely in the NIT probably

It depends on how many auto bids go out. Remember, any team that wins it's conference regular season championship but doesn't make the NCAA tournament because it didn't win the conference tournament gets an auto bid to the NIT. That's usually 6-10 spots. Ole Miss went 20-12, 10-8 last year and didn't make the NIT, and their non conference schedule was tougher than ours this year. I think we need 11-12 SEC wins to make the NIT.
