What IF X had met expectations this season?

What would the season been like?

What would be our record?

NCAA maybe? NIT for sure?

Would there had been any discussion about how bad Coach Grant was?

Last year's stats for Xeyrious was 8.2 pts./g, 4.8 reb/g in 22.8 minutes a game. This year he averaged 5.0 and 3.1 in 18.6 minutes.

He was the highest scorer and rebounder from last year's team we had returning. Our best 3 point shooter who was a starter and our second best free throw shooter.

To me, my expectations were more like 13 pts/g, 7 reb/g averaging about 30 minutes a game. Maybe even an all conference third team selection.

Plug in my expectations of X with the actual results of four other starters (excluding Jordan Davis assuming X would be in his spot in the lineup)

Cunningham 15.5 ppg, 8.3 rbg
D Davis 15.4 ppg, 4.1 rbg
Landers 11.1 ppg, 5.4 rbg
Crutcher 9.2 ppg, 4.3 ast/g

All four of these players exceeded my expectations statistically and I think most would tend to agree.

Looking back at our schedule, I think at least 8 of our games could possibly have been in the W column.

That puts our record at 22-8. We would be talking if we make the finals of the A-10 tourney we will be dancing. Lock on NIT with being a top seed.

And finally talk of Coach Grant being a candidate for A-10 Coach of the year.

In my humble opinion, if X had met expectations, this "What IF" could have been reality. What say you?
