[QUOTE="gtphd, post: 888528, member: 4269"] Go back and read this: [URL]https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/story/_/id/28577356/ncaa-tournament-bubble-watch-updated-look-wildest-bubble-years[/URL] We weren't even a bubble team in 2019-2020. It would have been an improbably deep (maybe even winning) run needed. The same for 2020-2021. I agree with you that we were playing great, especially when Moses took it to the next level starting in December. It was a fun team to watch, and I agree that it's a team that deserved an NCAA bid without the autobid. But, that's not how outsiders viewed it. We won the ACC and got a #9 seed, which shows we needed the autobid. Also, as excited as I was for that team, we would have been underdogs to UVA. My entire thesis is this: should we fire Josh? No, I don't think so. Should we have extended Josh? No, I don't think we should have. Why? The current performance is below what I expect for GT Basketball. The one time it met expectation might have been a once-in-a-career lucky scenario (two under-recruited guys developing into NBA talent at the same time), which makes me skeptical that it can be repeated. I don't want to bankrupt the program over that, so let him run a few more seasons, but if he's not back in the NCAAT, more frequently, he needs to go. [/QUOTE]
