Virginia wins the tournament. (Horrible call saves them in the Final Four, but’s that not the point here.)
Auburn has the foundation to win the national championship. We’ll see who returns and who Auburn picks up, but there is no reason to panic.
I’m bummed about yesterday like everybody else. I was thinking this was a Sweet Sixteen team. Didn’t happen. But I don’t believe this is the ceiling. Auburn is a program that has a great chance to make deep runs in the tournament.
Feel like the puzzle is missing a piece or two — but very close. But I hear ya’ll, a superstar PG wouldn’t hurt. 😉
