What 'accomplishments' would those be, if I may ask?

You can't mean conference championships ... or post-season tournament titles ... can you?

Hey, I'm certainly on board with conference championships and post-season tournament titles as being 'accomplishments', but ... all the ones Bill Self has won at 'ku' are 'meaningless', are they not? I'm told that all the time by Diamond Dave and virtually everyone else on here.

So I'm confused.

Do conference championships and post-season tournament titles merit stature as 'accomplishments' in college basketball?. Or only the ones your program won under Norm? Bill's are 'meaningless'?

And, again -- could you educate me as to why you think the assessment of our 2008 team's resume, in the eyes of the people who followed the game and covered it for as living at that time, was so radically different from that of yours?
