Fans react, both directions. We win a game against a solid/good team, next thing you know we're going to win out except for @KU. We lose to a team like TT, at home, that we should beat, and fans think we suck. The truth has always been somewhere in between.
Reality is, I think we're a lot like last year's team, with maybe slightly more upside given our depth/shooting. But when you look at this year and last year, regular season wise at the end of the year, I bet on paper they look a lot alike.
