I think the Penn 93-94 and 94-95 teams would have been on the bubble.
93-94 team only 2 regular season losses, both on the road, one at McGonigle Hall to a powerful Temple team ranked 12th in the final AP poll. This in a year where Penn itself was ranked 24th in the last regular season AP poll of the season.
Major problem would be Penn simply not playing any good teams that year, although they certainly won their share of away games against major conference squads.

Those teams were seeded 11 and 12 respectively, so they were already "on the bubble" in the eyes of the NCAA. You want to tell me they were underseeded; I think you have a good argument. But we have an good idea what the NCAA thought and I doubt they would have survived one last loss.

Kalu Anya to St. Louis, where he'll play alongside Robbie Avila (aka "Cream Abdul Jabbar"). What a front court for Josh Schertz - Anya with the defense, Avila with the offense.

Yikes. A mediocre team and a big drop in academic standing as well. I hope he got the money to make up the difference for sure...

SLU should be very good next season. Josh Schertz is bringing his ISU stars Robbie Avila and Isaiah Swope with him. Combined with Anya and some other transfers, they should be a Top 60 team, maybe a fringe bubble team.
