If you think your program can win a natty any year then you do have the duke level expectation.

I didn't say that. I didn't say we can win one any year. Just that we can win one. And we can at some point.

"Consistent deep tournament runs" isn't "Final Four or Finals every year." We can be Elite Eight/Sweet 16 with some level of consistency, and we can do better than that when the conditions are right.

Stop doing this. You're not good at it.

That is ironic considering that both Arkansas and Duke started to rise in the late 70s with both schools having similar histories.

Arkansas had two final fours in the 40s first while Duke didn't get to a final four until the 60s.

Arkansas had the highest winning percentage from 1978 to 1995.

The difference between the two is Duke has basketball and nothing else. Arkansas is a football minded program that has negated the basketball program since Nolan was fired.

But that changed with Muss and it looks to continue on with Cal.
