Actually, most BYU fans over 40 have had the expectation of making the tournament every year since Danny Ainge's sophomore year. That's one reason the latter Roger Reid/early Steve Cleveland days were so painful.
The sad part is that, even though Rose continues to win 20+ games, we don't know what those wins mean since BYU is now in the WCC instead of the MWC or the WAC. Would the Rose team that won 24 games last year but finished 3rd in the WCC have done drastically worse in the MWC? I say yes but can't prove it.
PS, I'm not advocating a return to the MWC...but would love for the team to be playing in the AAC.
