Brad can start using ROY bus motivation Not really a great PR guy, so borrow from Dabo. Coaches in the prosperity and shadow of the West Zone anyway.

To each his own. Dabo’s way works for him, and Brad’s way works for him too.
All I know is Brownell’s teams always play their tails off, even the years we haven’t been as good.

On the down side, we have a couple of bad losses.
Good side is we didn't play great the last two games but found a way to win them.

Really all three losses were bad. Iowa's near the bottom of the Big 10. The Gamecocks are dreadful. And that Loyola Chicago loss was inexplicable. They're a terrible shooting team, but that day they couldn't miss. Also, as someone else noted, the ACC is not a very respected basketball conference anymore and hasn't been for several years. I believe our NET ranking coming into today was down around 70 or so. Our Massey Composite ranking has been a little better, but still not anywhere near top 25.

While lots of schools with a good net ranking that will not be ranked or make the tournament.

Iowa is ranked #16 and just beat #14 Michigan. I wouldn’t consider that one a bad loss but the other 2 for sure.

Three ACC schools are ranked yet we lead the league. It’s still early. If we stay the course, rankings will follow. Keep winning.

Our resume prior to this week was not one of a ranked team…we’ll get there if we keep winning.

We lost to SCAR, which seems to be a trend .... when our team is better, but unexplicably finds a way to lose. Makes you wonder if someone got paid to lose. Just say'n.
