Agree 100%.

First a disclaimer. EVERYONE loves the Flyers here. And EVERYONE wants them to win. So leave the "just win" BS at the door. We all want them to win. What we need to figure out is how to win MORE in March.

Winning the NCAA tournament is the ultimate goal. Hell, Final Four is a great start to that.
We get there by getting good seeding.
We get that by either running the table like Gonzaga, or by losing a handful in a great conference.
Outright conference titles are nice, but who won the outright title in the Mountain West last year? I am sure they are proud. But I would much rather be 2017 Butler than 2016 San Diego State

SDSU incidentally won the Mountain West regular season at 23-8 only to lose to Fresno State in the conference final. Hello NIT.

Everyone here scratches their head as to why we are an 8 seed, and look how bad these other teams are. Common denominator on 95% of these teams? They are in a better conference.

Winning is nice. But the tournament is better. Butler isnt winning the Big East. But they are a three seed and that is better than winning the A10 and getting an 8. How we advance is by getting good seeds. By being in a better conference. And keeping AM.
