Message: [QUOTE="seeya27, post: 4731567, member: 2365"] Championships are ridiculously hard. That is what makes the accomplishments of Calhoun, K, and Wright so impressive. Now, Self has 2 titles as well. But literally "no one", not even Cal, comes into the tournament with higher-ranked teams and more talent -- and then loses more consistently -- than Self. He has lost as a 1 or 2 almost every year for 20 years. Half the time he doesn't get out of the round of 32. It's as weird an anomaly as UConn going 5/5 in natty games. In his 2nd title he did win with lesser talent, but that has been the exception. Most times he has a terrific team that goes down in flames like our '06 team. [/QUOTE]
