Message: [QUOTE="Sonova, post: 2498816, member: 7513"] I guess we’re just debating which revisionist version is more right LOL! I have no doubt that people complained after each of the 6 losses back in ‘04 and I am even more certain that The Boneyard represented a disproportionate percentage of the chicken littles and armchair coaches of UConn Nation. But to compare that tone, commentary and those fans to today is illogical and disingenuous. We had come off of a sweet 16 loss to Texas and a final 8 loss to Maryland the two years prior. And we started the season at #1 and were no lower than #9 all year. People who were complaining then (as fans do in all sports) were dealing with 1st world/blueblood “problems.” The arguments of the last few years arent about whether or not we will get a number 1 seed in the tourney. It’s about whether we will have another historic losing season. I just don’t get what point the “people complained then too” argument is supposed to make. That the program is in good shape? [/QUOTE]
