NCAA Tournament next year?

[GBO18]

Do we still expect to make the Tournament next year? Or does it depend on who stays or leaves?

If he can get Harris and Hopson to stay ... yes ... without them this team is in rebuilding mode for the next 2 or 3 years.

I doubt Harris and Hopson stay, so unless Martin brings in a Calipari-esque class, No.

 

[Volstylexx]

Only if Hell freezes over.

 

[sdowell]

where's hopson going ? oh yeah ,the tuesday night YMCA league !!

 

[SDV]

I'll be interested to see the player's comments after they meet with him next week

We weren't going to be a likely tournament team next year no matter who was the coach.

 

[TennNC]

we're within an hour of hearing of this hire for the first time, and not a single poster here has any clue who is staying or going or arriving next year. so it may be a tad bit premature for this.

you're assuming we'd be on probation?

 

[smokeybone21]

are you serious?

 

[IPorange]

Yes, or under Tony Jones as an interim.

It's just my opinion.

 

[jbeard82]

nope we wont make. especially if he get hit hard by the ncaa.

 

[Hoosier_Vol]

I doubt if Harris and Hopson was going to stay wether Bruce or who ever was here.

 

[GBO18]

Okay just assume we don't get a postseason ban and only Harris leaves. We still have some solid talent regardless of who the coach is.

Honestly, if we can keep two or three of Hopson, Tobias, Ware and Jones, then I think we actually have a decent shot. Florida loses practically everyone, USC and Georgia are still USC and Georgia, and the west will not be significantly better. I think we have a good shot at being 2nd or 3rd in the east depending on who Vandy will have which should be enough to get us to the tournament.

So if Hopson and Harris stay, and we keep the two guards that are committed, how can we not feel like we have a shot at a decent team? And yes, I know that's a lot of ifs.

Hopson will stay, he isn't even predicted in the top 75 of prospects. Ware will stay, Jones will go. Harris will be a Bull.
