At this point...

Pike just needs to vault the final hurdle. No more bad losses. We've been combating that for a few years. No more epic losing streaks.

He can do it. Keep the recruits coming and turn the page.
Look at how teams like Xavier and Texas A&M rebounded, specifically the aggies. They brought in some players, had some internal improvement and are favorites to make it out of the first round. Return and get healthy and we can be a good team next year.

But we got in last year with some of the worst losses a tourney team has ever had. And we got in because we had a ton of quality wins. We have a ton of quality wins this year plus a better #1 win this year AT A NUMBER 1 SEED, plus wins at PSU and Northwestern. What are the yard sticks exactly here? NC State 1-6 quad 1 is in? How'd Nevada pass the eye test last 3 games? Let's just schedule Duke 5 times and point to beating them once or twice or three times or whatever.
