This "First Four is taking away our UD MBB energy" is baseless. You can walk and chew gum at the same time.
Ordering NCAA cups for the First Four had nothing to do with Darrell Davis losing the ball in the final 10 seconds at Miss. State.

Wanting to go to the final 4 and realistically coming close every year is two entirely different things. The last 35 years UD was within 1 game of making it 2 times, and beyond that not really more than 1 or 2 rounds into the tourney. That team to the south of us has put itself in a position to realistically achieve it many years since the middle 80’s - probably at least 25 appearances. Not saying that the AD doesn’t want to get there but I’m not sure the focus is where it needs to be based on what the school has to offer in terms of facilities and fan base, etc...and one thing is for certain, UD loses the “First 4”, the headline for days if not weeks would resonate with what went wrong.
