20 wins would be a great season. 16-15 or 17-14 seems realistic.

The program is a regional joke...marginal success aside, I would hate to have my program be the punchline of so many jokes and coached by a complete doofus that plays his doofus kids too many minutes. They are a laughingstock. If I were a fan, I would have wanted him gone damn near a decade ago.

yah, I get the meaning of the tattoo and obviously his body, he can do what he wants... however, my opinion is the execution of said tattoo is not ideal for his overall style

he looks like a 30-something accountant having a pre-emptive midlife crisis

We should have this down by now. They’ll be better than expected. They will likely cling to the bubble and maybe potentially get into the dance. All while being extremely frustrating in stretches.
And then get bounced on the first weekend because either their opponent shoots 75% from 3 or we shoot 6% from 3, or both.

I kinda think we are unfairly being written off as an afterthought this year.

Our guards and wings are going to be pretty good. Just have to hope someone or a couple someones can rebound a bit and defend in the post and this team will be alright

Dix, Sandfort and Perkins aren't a horrible base to build on.

Freeman is going to be a stud. Harding is going to be capable.

Rebounding should be improved Krikke, Braun, Freeman and Dembele.

Just need Patrick to quit or play 10 minutes or less and this is a tournament team.

Fran will have any sort of rebounding prowess coached out of Krikke, Braun, Freeman and Dembele by Dec 15th

I don’t hate Fran at all but I’m not going to pretend we are going to have some improvements on the defensive end when history suggests otherwise.

sitting his child would be a good start though. Maybe Fran will do what Kirk cannot

Someone else should start the 2023-2024 Official Season Thread. I'm not doing it, don't deserve to.
