[QUOTE="lv20gt, post: 786820, member: 2299"] Cade Cunningham has also made himself a household name and also hasn't made it to the sweet sixteen. Morant was already a top 5 draft lock months before the NCAAT and routinely featured on ESPN for what he was doing in the regular season. Sure plenty of people never heard of him before the tournament and plenty of people also never heard of him before the NBA draft including those who watched the NCAA casually because they heard his name but stopped hearing it after they lost in the second round. But even if you want to argue that making the sweet 16 is a bigger deal than winning the Ohio Valley conference tournament, I wouldn't disagree. Because for midmajors from one bid, or borderline one bid conferences the NCAAT is pretty much the only chance for exposure, so its a bigger deal when trying to recruit there. The irony of you saying that and not realizing that you only reason us making the NCAAT is a big deal is because we haven't in so long is entertaining. Making the NCAAT isn't some super impressive accomplishment to recruits. It's more of a disqualifier to not make the NCAAT than than a selling point to make it. The fact we haven't in a decade is big deal because it's not meeting a basic expectation. But this is talking past the topic. If we're talking about making the sweet 16 or winning the ACC Tournament both already imply making the NCAAT But it is funny that you phrase it as making a run in the ACCT when the discussion is about winning the ACCT, not just making a run. Probably because phrasing it as 'how many interviews have you seen where the goal is to win championships' doesn't lead to the answer you want and harder to point to making the NCAAT as a big deal in contrast when winning the ACCT guarantees it.
