[NU Sports] Basketball fantasy land

[bwdolphin146 at yahoo.com]

How about "winning games in the NCAAs" NU makes the tournament  first?

Or actually wins a NIT game?

Or goes  through an entire non-league season without the requisite embarrassing loss or two to Nowhere State Tech?

Or beats Penn State for once? 

Or doesn't follow up the occasional impressive Big Ten win with two or three awful losses?

Or can hold double-digit second-half leads? (Illinois, Purdue, etc.)

Sorry, I am not a believer. For years upon years on this list I have heard that, yea, THIS is the year for NU hoops.  Well, it's been years and it still hasn't been. And with Coble hurt it appears unlikely to be this year, either. 

I hope I am wrong of course.
