Am I the only one who thinks it's pretty interesting how happy we all are for the great season the basketball team had, but if the football team had the equivalent level of success during its season, the board would be melting down.

Basically, it's hard to make people happy when it's national championship or bust.

So I find it refreshing to be able to come away with a sense of accomplishment even though the team fell short of its ultimate goals. But was a great season to be proud of!
