[QUOTE="Techster, post: 699178, member: 360"] In 1989, Bobby Ross ended the season winning 7 of the last 8 games which set up 1990. Everyone knows what happened in 1990. Keep in mind, Ross had a miserable 1988 season where he was questioned left and right, and their was a lot of turmoil within the team. 1989 didn't start off well either, but the team bounced back to for the foundations of what would become our National Championship team in 1990. I'm not saying Pastner is taking us to the Championship next season, but with the vast majority of the team returning, including one of the top backcourt tandems in the country, this team is setting up to be a special team that can give us a special season. The way this season ended has a similar feel to the 1989 season under Ross (of course, I was in elementary school at the time :)). Sometimes when you're in the middle of living it, it's hard to see the big picture and it's especially hard to look past the trees for the forest. Honestly, I don't blame some fans for souring on Pastner, as some of it he brought upon himself, but he isn't one of those coaches that has bad intentions...maybe just bad judgement at times. Next season is Pastner's "get old, stay old" mantra coming to fruition. All of his recruits will finally be upper classmen, and he'll have his best recruiting class coming in. It's an important year for Pastner, but I'll go a step beyond that: Next season will be one of the most important seasons for GT basketball. If we can make it back to the NCAA tournament next season, it will give Pastner and GT cache that our plan is working. It can set us up for years to come. If we fail in that, then Pastner will most likely be fired, and the rebuilding process will have to begin again...and who knows when we will ever be able to recover.
