Cmon. Making the summit finals isn’t amazing success. It should be the minimum expectation for this program. We are an above average low major basketball program. Nothing more. We don’t fund a program that will ever be more than that. Tonight was great. You know what would be even more great? Realizing those types of performances need to happen early in the year to build fan excitement and engagement so that there is momentum to fund the program at a higher level so that we could actually position ourselves to make some noise in the tournament when we get there. It’s fine to celebrate tonight’s win. It’s also reasonable to want more from this program than just success at the Summit Tourney.
The Summit League is also the level we fund our program at. You can keep ordering steak at Applebee's and being mad that it's not as good as at Gordon Ramsay's Steakhouse or accept the fact that Dave makes a decent steak for cooking at Applebee's.
