At the beginning of the year I said:
We would win 20 to 22 games before we entered SEC Tourney play. We won 23. That is a plus.
I said we would make it to the final 16 round and lose. I thought that would be a fair year, but if we made it to the Elite 8 it would be considered a plus. Give us a plus.
I said not to worry about this year. To give this team a year because of the youth. No grade
Next year is the year that I said expectations of a Final Four are EXPECTED. The longest time in UK Basketball history of not reaching the Final Four is EIGHT YEARS. That means if we don't reach it next year we tie the record (NOT GOOD by UK standards). I feel that the grade Tubby receives depends on next year. The standards speek for themself.
Tubby is a good coach but if he wants to be considered a great coach he is going to have to do what Rupp, Hall, Sutton, and Pitino have done before him. That doesn't mean a final Four every 8 years.
