I'm not fooled, we're in agreement. BC basketball was at absolute ROCK BOTTOM. 5 weeks ago. It could not have been ANY WORSE than it was. Now that BC has traded in Skinner, their small forward, and their entire recruiting class for a new (white) coach, things are so much better!

I disagree. things weren't rock bottom. We could have gone to ZERO sweet 16s in the last 13 years. Thank God Skinner got us to one. After all, BC is not a basketball school, so we shouldn't expect any better than that.

This team was going to suck next year under Skinner anyway. And as far as recruiting went, you lost a small white kid out of Canada who's Dad is a bitch. I forgot, we also lost a small forward who's overweight, out of shape and can't dribble. The two players that left transferred to Fairfield and Boise St., that should tell you enough.

A. Al sucked at recruiting. He had some good assistants. When they left, the recruiting stopped.
B. I love the "we are what we are" attitude...1 sweet 16 in 13 years is AWESOME for BC...we should just aspire to "make the tournament". BC should have never fired Al. His ceiling was so high. Hell, we could have expected ANOTHER sweet 16 before 2024.

The point is that the arbitrary capriciousness of your selecting the Sweet 16 as your cutoff for success is, was, and always has been fucktarded. Why isn't the cutoff one game more? One game less? Add to that the fact that you never seem to want to talk about the teams that beat BC in most seasons (you will of course act like an asshole and respond to this with "U-WM", but that is to be expected) and your opinion becomes utterly worthless.

I'd like to announce that with the additional revenue generated by the Yahoo-bot, we're expanding the EO Club and adding the OJ/Teddy Rape Suite. Congrats to all of us.

Because you judge coaches on how they can get it done in the NCAA tournament. That's how it works. Getting to the second weekend is a huge deal for a school. It's clear you support the theory that teh tourney iszz randomz and thus 't judge a coach on how he does in the regular season, not postseason. It's simply a case of different opinions.

Enter OJ's chorus.
Actually, no. The tourney is not random. BC was usually beaten by better teams. Georgia Tech, Villanova and Georgetown leap to mind in BC's three best teams that had chance seasons.
Few coaches in the country get fired after taking their team to 7 tourneys in 10 years. Period. That said, I am okay with moving on.

You could certainly call me OJ's chorus because I definitely agree with him here. At a power conference school, you make or break your job on how successful you are in the post season. Getting there isn't enough. Most of the time around 40% make it from the ACC (and Big East before that). It's what you do once you're in there.
