But I agree that perspective is important and as long as he continues to recruit, he will have time to develop as a coach. The short term outlook for the program is good, but the long term outlook is what has everyone salivating.
Making the tourney yes........I see that as table stakes at Xavier. Last year was an anomaly. Any expectations beyond that at this point.......are silly. We have to see what the freshman class can bring to next years team. I think Jason Carter will be a significant contributor from day one. We still have no one to back up Jones in the paint (except for the frosh). Lots of potential.......and some question marks too.
