It matters because if one's W-L record is substandard, speration from service is just as likely despite the NET and possibility of making the NCAA Tournament.

That's all.

Yeah, but if CBJ had us in the top 50 of the NET and in position to be a 10 or 11 seed he would have been retained. OU just has higher standards, which is fine, they have a much better history of sustained success than we do. Especially this century.

But that still doesn't have anything to do with my point. Which was, yes, we finished 12th in the league standings, but we weren't the 12th best team in the league. The conference schedule is only 2/3 of the season. If you schedule and play like crap OOC, league standing is pretty irrelevant.
 



Ben was 56 and 71...I'm not sure if that includes the victory over Macalester tho. :)
Idk should he be on the list? ...we are not Kentucky, Louisville, North Carolina when it comes to basketball. Starting lines are always different where ever a coach takes over. Not good and a really stupid hire but his coaching wasn't worst of the century worthy...was it?

The Gophers under Ben Johnson also prevailed against St Olaf.

Perhaps he would do well in the MIAC.
 










Reusse and barreiro never made a peep. With U sports as in everything - expect what you accept.
