relevant. We had that class and are still irrelevant.
The expectations for our program should be this.
-In good seasons we are top quartile in our conference, make occasional runs at the conference tourney championship and make it to the second or third round of the NCAA tourney.
-In rebuilding seasons we are middle of the pack in the SEC and maybe get an NIT berth.
-In bad seasons the team is still competitive, above .500 overall and not in the cellar if the SEC.
-The ratio of good to rebuild to bad should never be lower than 3-2-1
By my estimation CMs ratio is 0-2-0 with two sub .500 seasons which are never acceptable. Notice that my expectations do not include conference championships or deep tourney runs. Those would fall under the category of great seasons which would not be expected but nice surprises once in a while.
