I like your rundown above. At the end of the day, I believe TOT should get a 3 year extension. This program is on the ups, and I believe that the next 2 years, at least, will be better than this one. The main gap is interior offense, with Oscar gone. Gai will get better, our freshman will get better and hopefully TOT can recruit quality players (I like this year's class and certainly Deng Gai). I don't want to start over, not yet at least. We've had many coaches, and none of them have been consistent winners, or even 500, in the last 25 years. TOT has passion, and hopefully somebody can push him in the direction of becoming a better game coach and strategist. They have won on the road this year and have won more close games than they have lost. That is something that we never have done, in my experiences with FF basketball.

I'd be okay with 18 wins this season, and anything else, like a trip to the MAAC finals or possible NCAA birth would be gravy. I predicted 15 or 16, so I can't complain with 18. We can complain, however, if this team exits early in Trenton, that is unacceptable. That's the only thing that will send me in an uproar (I am betting that we win at least at Loyola, and we should win in Jersey City).

[> [> Expecations for rest of season -- JoeStag, 11:40:12 02/23/03 Sun

I think the expectations are Clear

1. We end the season by beating St Peters and Loyola, and finish in 2nd place
2. We win our first round game in MAAC Tourney
3. We play one of the other top 5 teams in the Semis. We would be 18-10 at that time, and so will all our competitors (except Manhattan will be a little better). This will be the game that defines the Season. If we win, then everthing is gravy from there..... either NCAA or NIT.
If we lose, our season has turned into a disapointment after a great start. Bottom line is that Semi final game will be a great game of 2 evenly matched teams, and will come down to the last shot like yesterday.

If we do not get to step 3...... then all hell breaks loose (lol)
