Not so sure about that...
#1 They already lost to Dayton.
#2 They had a losing season in 07-08 at 15-17.
#3 11-17 (4-12) in 05-06.
#4 They have exactly one season with an over .500 conference record since 1996-97
#5 They have a 38% ACC win pct over that time
No, they don't have years like that all the time, but they're not some elite program. Where have they earned that respect? Because they were national runner up 7 years ago? Hewitt hasn't shown much coaching ability other than that run to the final. Hewitt's totals are 155-130 and 60-84 at GT. Ugh.
