BigShoop Posted January 25, 2007 Group: Member Topic Count: 219 Content Count: 3,827 Reputation: 8 Days Won: 0 Joined: 05/08/2003 Share Posted January 25, 2007 I have a question, miamisportsfan83: How many wins do you honestly expect USF to have in conference at this point? They currently have 2, winning the only 2 games in which they were favored, correct? Having played #14 UCONN, #10 Pitt, #20 Notre Dame, and West Virginia, all on the road. The home games were Louisville, Cincy, and Rutgers. Whether or not they should be or shouldnt be a better team in McCullum's 4th year isnt the issue. Looking at THIS YEAR's team as its own entity, how can you look at that schedule and with any fairness expect anything better than 2 or 3 wins at this point?Let's compare our 2-5 record to another Big East team, Syracuse who is 4-2. Syracuse's conference wins include: Marquette, 'Nova, Cincy(by 1), and Rutgers. Losses are Pitt and St Johns. How would you compare Syracuse to USF this year? I mean, obviously they are twice as good, they have double our wins! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So overall we have beaten those we should and lost to those that are better. Thats where the Bulls stand right now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest r_to_the_izzo Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 so we should lose to teams with .500 or better record.... good i get it nowYou didnt know that? Losing is ok as long as its to good teams. So is losing by 20+ night in and night out. I understand the BE is tough, but if its too tough for CRM to figure out than maybe the next guy will do a better job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if you are going to come on and post about how crappy the teams we have beaten are, then we should at least point out how well those we have lost to are.I WANT USF basketball to be great, BUT the facts are that our talent is BELOW those teams we have lost to.So since the tiltle was basketball FACTS, I thought i would add some of those FACTS.
