    What were your pre-season expectations?

    My expectations were that we would have highs and lows and end up around the bubble. Despite missing over a month of practice/games we are just about on track to meet my expectations. I think some of you let the early season streak get your expectations a bit too high.

    That win over EKU in OT combined with the miracle win over Bradley really had me amped for the Final Four.

    My expectations were that we would be on the right side of the bubble. 9-11 seed territory.

    Same as every year since Staak, NCAA bid. Then go from there.

    Yup, same, to be fair though I was expecting us to not be on the bubble and get in relatively comfortably.

    Make the tournament was my #1 expectation.

    After some early season success someone posted a poll about where we would finish in the BE and I picked 4th, so we are a little below that expectation I had after the season started, but if we make the tourney that is my biggest expectation.
