In years past, in most cases there was always some optimism after every NCAAT loss, because you could point to the returning players to continue to build on the foundation laid by the previous team.
You don't really have this in a transfer portal-OAD era. Losses feel emptier than they used to. So you have to win now.
This creates a terrible situation for fans, who get excited for every big recruiting get or portal get but then they leave.
So when we got the news four starters were returning, we were filled with hope because we'd gotten used to it not happening around here. Now we face the real possibility of needing to hit reset once again after a year we get swept by Carolina and a NCAAT 4 seed
Yeah...
