Which would you consider more successful over a ten year span?

Interesting. I was reading on my phone and it came out all messed up. Reading it now on my laptop, it reads very clearly. My apologies.

No worries, my friend.

No one is equating not winning the championship as total failure, but to pretend that the cbb season isn't now mostly about March, is to be naïve or choose to have blinders on. Again, no one said it was fair- but it is the reality.
As others have pointed out the "usual suspects" are the ones who are winning titles. SU fits into the winners category for most regular seasons, the problem is we haven't cashed in as well as we should, IMHO, for postseasons.
Meanwhile we see programs that are on our level doing much better than us in March. If we consider ourselves to be on that level of UConn, UL, MSU, Fl, UA, etc...then surely wanting more than a FF every 10 years and 1 NC, isn't too much to ask?

It's OK to be naive. You are just presenting another point of view. It's up to people to decide if they wish to see things that way. Appreciating the whole season is more fun than obsessing over how it ends. It's kind of like life: do you want to think about death all the time or are there other things that seem important to you as well? But you are fee to focus on the inevitable, or, in college basketball, the nearly inevitable, if you prefer.
