Champ from Zach's article:
“One thing I can say is the guys aren’t done fighting. We’ve had a rough year, ups and downs, some games we should’ve won, some games we gave away. But we’re not done. I don’t know what anybody else thinks — I don’t really care what anybody else thinks — the players are not done. We’re not done fighting.”
This is why it bugs me that posters are saying the season is over. With the automatic bid, it's not truly over until we lose there.
I will root like heck but the season is over.
Rooting for the team to succeed and hoping for a miracle run in the Big East tourney, while at the same time trying to find positive signs for next season, can be done at the same time. While I don't see us making much noise in the Big East tourney, I am throwing a few bucks on us to win as a long shot. I'm not confident that we can put it all together this late in the season, but if we can then I believe we have just enough talent to make a run.
I will root for us to win each of the last two games in the regular season regardless of what it means. But I would much prefer a potential matchup with Providence in the Big East tournament. I really think they’re beatable. I think it’s highly unlikely we beat Villanova. If we can’t beat DePaul then it doesn’t really matter who we play so I’m not too concerned about whether we play Butler or DePaul first.
