In response to gokinsmen
Near misses I agree are very disappointing. But, that is always how the season eventually ends for the entire NCAA field except one. Given the Ivies' different focus on sports from a few power conferences, we shall never see the day that an Ivy goes all the way to the finals IMHO. I have no problem with that. For the Ivies the prize is getting the chance to play in the tournament and possibly going a couple of rounds (and share in some of the loot that this tournament generates). We can only hold a coach to the standard to which the school supports him/her. In bball, thank god, the Ivies are unwilling to do what is apparently necessary theses days to be the National Champ.
