I want to say something...

Struggling a bit this year, but Bo Ryan and Wisconsin have made the top 15 a permanent residence the past several years by playing D and scoring under 60 ppg.

Izzo and Michigan State come to mind as well. Martin just has to get those 3 or 4 key components over the next 2 classes, and UT is a tough out anywhere, not just at TBA. Rowdy away crowds doesn't affect a team that devotes itself to defense and fundamentals.

classy post hardwood thanks for the input its always nice to hear another teams fan perspective. wisconsin was the first team that came to mind and bo ryan as you stated. now i dont think ccm wants to play quite that slow and will allow them a little more freedom than ryan does but very similar. i fully expect to see some results next year with a full year of his coaching some of these guys, and his recruits with a year under their belt. i think an ncaa tourney team somewhere around a 7 seed would be a pretty fair expectation, and the way things looked a few months back i am happy with that.
