[QUOTE="Techster, post: 699433, member: 360"] Something I kinda touched on earlier, but I would say it's a pivotal year for our program...probably one of the most important seasons for GT basketball in the last two decades (if not more). We are set up to be an NCAAT team. If Pastner does not get us there next season, regardless of injuries or guys transferring, then he will have wasted our best team since we last made the tournament with Hewitt. If we can make the NCAAT, especially if we can get to the 2nd week, I think there will be a LOT of upside to sell recruits...not just the elite "one and done" types, but the next tier guys like we got in Alvarado and Devoe. Guys who are the definition of Pastner's "get old, stay old" mantra. However, if we fail to make the NCAAT, I think it's almost certain Pastner will no longer be with GT past next season. Then GT is rebuilding again, with only Devoe a proven commodity (IF he doesn't transfer out for his last year which is almost certain). That's another 3-5 years of uncertainty, and two decades of GT falling further into the abyss. Given the way college basketball is going, I'm not sure GT basketball can easily recover from that...as we have seen since Hewitt was let go. There's a LOT riding on next season for the good of GT basketball. Whether you agree Pastner is the coach to lead us back to prominence or not, you better get behind him (and by extension our beloved basketball team) for at least next season. [/QUOTE]
