you can make any list you want, but for a program that has been as good as ours has been for a long time, this 5 year stretch stinks.  2 outright tourney misses(I am counting the tourney ban season because that was an NIT team when we self imposed the ban), a third year where we were one stolen bid away from missing out for the 3rd time, and a first round exit as an 8 seed when preseason expectations(probably unrealistic) were of a darkhorse final 4 team.  and, oh yeah, that 8 seed team lost 4 non-conference games, 2 of which were pathetic.  That leaves one really fun Final 4 run, greatly aided by playing a stiff of a 7 seed, a 15 and an 11.  so basically, one great 6 minute stretch against UVA is supposed to wipe out the fact that beyond that we have been nothing more than Virginia Tech under Seth Greenberg.  Then add in the fact that even though we are now done with sanctions(yes, there is no doubt they contributed to what I describe above), recruiting hasn't really picked up at all.   our program doesn't stink but this 5 year stretch does, and Syracuse shouldn't be satisfied with mediocrity
