And by that, I mean we only play 6.5 guys. "Past results do not guarantee future performance." LOL

But that was a heck of a win tonight. Let's just keep this streak going. That's all we can realistically ask for right now.

We're going to have a pretty solid core next year, though, so long as Mali returns. Coleman wouldn't hurt to have, either. I think he would provide something next year that Taurean Thompson (and Pascal Chukwu) might not.
 
Boeheim does his best work with these types of teams. That's why that 9 game stretch during the suspension kills us. If we go 7-2 during that stretch (entirely plausible), we are looking at 19-5 and a national ranking. Even 6-3 and we're 18-6.

We are in a decent spot now, but the committee should fully take into account the suspension. That can only help.

There's so much parity this season. We could end up anywhere from a 6 seed to the NIT. Very little separates the top 50 teams.
