A year ago today we were 5-6 in conference, 16-6 overall, having lost 6 of 8, barely hanging onto a top 25 ranking.
We couldn't win a close game, Andre Jackson was a headcase, and we were wondering if we were going to squander the best start to a season in over a decade and flame out in the Tournament yet again. People were saying Hurley should be on the hot seat next year, if not sooner.
Fast forward to today, and we've won the championship, gotten 3 guys to the League, and have come back even better as #1 in the country. It's kind of unfathomable, actually, to think about where this program and fanbase was not even 365 days ago.
