It would be fantastic if people could focus on what this team was and what they accomplished rather than what they didn't do.
Proud as can be but at the same time bummed. Really thought we were winning that game last night. It was right there
Wishing next season could start now. Excited by the growth that so many of them showed, and with a talented class coming in...I can’t wait to see next year’s team.
My hope for this season was that we could keep the winning seasons streak alive, and that these young players could get better and become the veteran foundation for the next great SU b-ball era that always seems to follow a down stretch(2003-2005, 2009-2014). That we actually made the sweet 16 was a bonus beyond my wildest dreams, and that we are sitting here saying “if we just made this play we would’ve beat Duke”...the future is bright. For what will still be a young team, we’ll be fairly battle tested next March after playing 4 close games and winning 3 of them this year.
That’s where I am too. It would have been easier to handle if we’d lost by 10+
It's ok to be disappointed over the result.
Frustrated. They could have won this game if not for mistakes; it was that close. Losing like that makes it a tougher pill to swallow. Call me a bad fan and alumnus, but I can't wear my SU gear right now.

Beautifully put!Disappointed that the run is over, but feeling so much better about this season and this team than I did two weeks ago today.
If you are an objective observer you saw us get two wins of the type that seemed to elude us all season and play a game against Duke that was damn close to a second huge upset.
You saw Brisset show signs that if he returns, he will be the alpha next season.
You saw Marek show signs that he might give Bazeley a run for his money for the starting forward position, or at least be someone that is going to demand playing time in a real forward rotation next season.
You also saw younger inexperienced guys get great experience that will serve this team well next season.
You saw our coach reestablish that he is one of the best in the game.

Very satisfying four game run to end the season for a team that really didn't look capable of it.
Too funny.
After the MSU game I'm sure their fans were saying we could have won the game if not for how badly we played. Our fans were saying our defense was fantastic, we forced those mistakes.
Turn the page to the Duke game, we lost because of all the mistakes. Not like a very talented Duke team, coached by probably one of the top two college coaches of all time, had a hand in forcing those mistakes.
me tooI'm wearing SU gear all weekend.
