Great point -- I mean look at everyone on this team right now. Cooney, G, DC have been around the longest:
2013 - Final 4 (DC, Cooney, G)
2014 - Lost in the 2nd round -- sucks but it happens (Roberson)
2015 - Ban
2016 - Final 4 (Mali, Lydon, Howard)

This team isn't full of players who have been in a tournament all 4 years and had tough exits or unexpected losses. UNC and Nova have players who have continuously faced the heartbreak and they can really see how hard it is to get this far. Last year sucked but knowing we couldn't get in the tourney anyway, I think it was easy to forget about last year.

3 of our players have been to 2 FF in 3 eligible NCAAT years
1 of them has been to a FF in 2 eligible years
3 of them have gone their first year

THen you look at guys like Brogdon, Brice Johnson, Paige, Archidiano, etc. who have been highly lauded for 4 years and been high seeds and never got to experience it until this year (sorry Brogdon). Just a different and unique experience for our group -- just hop0e we win on Monday night
