He has not had a great season. A great season would be 25+ wins, at least 2nd in regular season, winning the conference tournament and earning a 12 or better seed in the NCAA, or first in regular season and a loss in the finals of the conference tournament with a deep run in the NIT.. That 12 seed would require us to play and win out of conference games against much better competition than Marlin is willing or able to schedule.
    I would agree. I was just curious to know why he responded like he did. There is no way I would consider this a successful season, even if it ended in a tournament birth.

    Unsuccessful seasons with a happy endings are never called successful. There are other adjectives that better describe the unfolding of events.

    Happy endings are usually a measure of success.

    Merely surviving a train wreck may be deemed a happy ending, but few would call the trip a success.

    Well, this train ride of a bb season seems to never have been able to get on track.

    With the uphill climb this team has had to endure this season, a tournament birth would absolutely be a success in my book...not necessarily a success for this season, but for the growth and potential springboard it could be for this youthful roster (Johnson, Wilson specifically)
