He said the ultimate judgement of whether a year is successful is the tournament and whether you get to the final 4. It's every team's ultimate goal but in the end one's success is based on tournament success. He heard that criticism for the 1st and 2nd round losses earlier in his career. The regular season's goal is to make the tournament and secondary is to get a decent seeding to get as far as you can in the ultimate test, the NCAA's.

Bet 1st round loser, Michigan St, would have rather lost 6 more games than last year's 2015-2016 6 loss regular season and made the Final 4, like their 12 loss team did just the year before. Have people praised Pitt for their great regular season success as being more impressive than their numerous tournament failures? Did Jamie Dixon get criticized and hounded because he was a failure in the regular season? Let's be honest here. If JB had great regular seasons all 4 years and lost in the first or 2nd round each year, rather than the 2 Final 4's, guess what everyone would be harping on?
