But if the conference as a whole starts owning the P5 preseason- it wouldnt matter since we’d regularly put 5-7 teams in based on that record- but the conference doesn’t do that on a regular basis. Part of that comes down to crappy TV contracts and part of that is teams with 2,000 seat “arena”. We came close a few years ago with 5 teams in and only UD that year proved It belonged.

Although 4 in a row was a start and a good start at that, missing as badly as we have this year (not that anyone interested in the Tourney would pay attention to what we had as a record and how badly we sometimes played) it means that a rebuild is needed not a reload.

If we miss out again next year we start to look like a flash rather than a bright beacon of BB.

You get noticed one year at a time (as in what have you done lately?) Stringing multiple years once again needs to happen.

You don't get another conference interested in an arena, in a fan base without a PROGRAM. If that were the case you could sell the arena and the First 4 Hoopla (or whatever you call it) to a conference for some money and do something else ....
