Ags return their top 3 scorers, all seniors. No excuses for year 5 of the Billy Kennedy era.

NCAA Tournament or GTFO.

This has been on his page for months. It's an accurate quote so it passed muster with the Wikipedia editors.

And the complaining from this board as a result would be the most aggy thing ever. There was already a lot of bitching and moaning last season when it looked like we were going to make the tournament.

Upvoted because this annual 3 month long melt is great, and I love seeing senior officers in misery like the rest of us.

Yeah we will make the tournament this year. There's too much talent on the squad and impact seniors not to. But we will underachieve in the tournament. And then hyman gives him a salary bump and extension.

Absolutely.

I still believe Kennedy should have been let go no later than season 3, but if he actually makes the sweet 16 the contract extension would be well deserved. That said, all evidence points to this being very very very unlikely.

First off,

Second, I wouldn't be that surprised if we made it with this team, and again this is coming from a hardcore "Kennedy sucks!" guy. House is a scoring machine, a couple of the fish can really shoot, and we've got some fish bigs who are ready to contribute out of the box. To make the S16, some of those guys only need to get hot twice in a row to make the S16. Good coaching isn't necessarily required. Far crazier things have happened.

Now winning 26 or 27 in the regular season, which would require a consist and prolonged high level of play, and quality coaching? No way. But the S16? Yea, it could happen, even with Kennedy at the helm. He's solidly below average, but worse coaches have made the round of 16.

With our OOC schedule, I'm calling 20-22 regular season wins and an 9-12 seed in the tournament.

Two things:

1) How's the OP looking so far?

2) Can you taste it yet, Roger?

I look forward to your prototypical aggy response when we do make the tournament.

"Yeah, but any coach could win with this talent."
"We got super lucky cause X and Y happened."
"It was a given with how bad everyone else was."
"Well yeah, but we still should have won X more games."
