I’m trying to take Neck out of the equation and look at it from a numbers perspective. One of our goals is to win the conference, the tourney and make the NCAA. Great. But we dropped 3 games against good teams that could help you still get in if we stub our toe in conference play or the tourney. It seems like the last 2 seasons we’ve looked back on “man, if we’d only closed out this game or that game then we’d be an at large.” Those same type games are mounting up early.
Several opportunities this year, but don’t let these “well, its one game” mount up. Those one become many of you keep adding them up. Then you’re on the outside looking in saying “woulda, coulda, shoulda.”
