Honest goals

[MC_Cat]

Make the Big Ten Tournament, get a W and play in the NIT. That would be a decent send-off for our super seniors and give meaningful competition to the returnees for next year.

The fact that we have lost to every team below or next to us in the standings excepting Gophers makes me nervous though. Losses against Penn St, Iowa and now Washington really hurt. Iowa we get another crack at but those 2 above plus Rutgers are our only regular season meetings.

Indiana and USC you have to figure will win some more so our advantage over them may not even come into play.

That would be incredible under the circumstances. I can’t see us winning more than 1 more. Even if we get in the B1G tourney, we are one and done. I don’t have much interest in the NiT.

Right now I’m just rooting for Martinelli to win the b10 scoring title (he’s in the lead!). Any wins are a bonus.

My honest goals were to get to 7 or even 8 wins and make the BTT. Last night was one we really needed, TBH. We still get Minnesota and we get a couple more winnable ones at home, but it's a tough road.

Winning even a couple more to avoid just a total gross finish would be nice. 2 wins with some development and gelling from the young guys with everybody entering the offseason healthy would be a big win. If Mullins can continue to shoot well, like over 35%, from outside for the rest of the year now THAT would be mighty fine as well. A game changer for him as a contributor, TBH. I feel bad for Ty and Matt, it's gonna be a rough finish to their careers on the court that they don't deserve.

How far we’ve come since the days of Kevin O’Neil…

I want the Cats to beat Nebraska. Why Nebraska? Because that will be my yearly pilgrimage to the WR. I have never seen NU loose at the new WR. Not this year satan, not this year.
