What in the world???

You said it is 'absurd' how long it has been since your program has been ranked in the Top 25 polls. That implies that standing in the polls in college basketball has meaning. And is something that is desirous. Does it not? Pointing out how your program received votes in those polls over a six year span does not also suggest that? How was that 'misconstrued'?

So are/is standing in the polls of any value in the sport of college basketball? If so, then would you regard you-know-who's record of seasons ranked in the upper echelon of those polls to still be 'meaningless' or something your program aspires to?

Does a 'real person', after their team loses a basketball game, claim that their team was "not going to be able to win regardless of our performance" because the outcome was "not decided by the competitors on the court"?

          You have to look at what our roster should be in - alwaysright MU - 2/22 07:50:31
               Year 3 could be better than year 4 - that's the way CBB is. - tigerdb MU - 2/22 08:23:41
                    I don’t see Tilmon going early - wu-tangtiger MU - 2/22 08:40:34
                         Tilmon's rebound numbers aren't nearly what they COULD be - tigerdb MU - 2/22 08:52:14
                              I haven’t heard that that’s really a coaching strategy - wu-tangtiger MU - 2/22 08:55:14
               I agree. But NCAA runs are difficult to predict. - GeorgiaTiger76 MU - 2/22 08:00:47
                    Yeah, plenty of good teams lose early every year - Domino MU - 2/22 08:15:51
                    If he doesn't have a capable squad that year, it also falls - alwaysright MU - 2/22 08:06:03
                         I agree. If everyone is healthy, his 4th year should really - GeorgiaTiger76 MU - 2/22 13:00:22
     Not with the current business model....nm - tigertix MU - 2/22 06:38:01
          Of course you would say that - Hickeytime MU - 2/22 07:11:30
          So you don't think this could easily be a tourney team in - StaleyTiger MU - 2/22 07:10:58
               Yes, next year should be much better. - GeorgiaTiger76 MU - 2/22 13:05:33

     I'll say yes. (nm) - ForOldMissouri MU - 2/21 22:42:52
     very likely, yes.(nm) - *M* KC - 2/21 22:09:52
     No frickin' way. Question is if we sniff NCAA's in 5 yrs - coolbean MU - 2/21 21:57:06
          How'd we make it last year?(nm) - Mizzmi27 MU - 2/22 11:17:12

          Leaving was his choice. He was treated terribly by the UT - GeorgiaTiger76 MU - 2/22 07:11:57
          Or not - alwaysright MU - 2/21 21:22:36
               I get amused by the criticism that Cuonzo gets - wu-tangtiger MU - 2/21 22:08:38

                         That's how I feel too. He may or not be a good enough coach - GeorgiaTiger76 MU - 2/22 07:15:55
                              I don't think as highly of him as many of you do, but I - alwaysright MU - 2/22 07:37:00
                                   Isn't that a normal ebb and flow for a mid-major? - StaleyTiger MU - 2/22 07:51:15
                                        To a degree, yes. But he did not leave behind something - alwaysright MU - 2/22 08:03:21
