Throw out Paulsen's first year when he inherited a horrible team that went 5-13 in the A10, and he is exactly at .500 conference record for his remaining 5 years. I think we'd be thrilled with that. His overall record even with that bad first year was .511 We haven't sniffed anything like a winning record in a long time.

I understand any consistent progress made towards getting back to a winning program will be welcomed, but the fan base being thrilled with the thought of a .500 conference record speaks to how deeply the program has bottomed out.

We've only done that 7 times in 27 years in the A10. Being .500 consistently would be welcomed as progress.

He won a D3 championship as a head coach, and over the years his teams came in first in their conference 9 times. The guy can coach. Top half of the A-10 4 times in 6 years at Mason....sign me up for us finishing in the top half of the A10 even 2 times in 6 years

Again what’s the goal here? Barely top half league finishes and no tourney appearances? Goes back to my original point … aiming for mediocracy gets you less than. Which is what we have settled for and now seem to aspire to be happy with.
