Reasonable minds can disagree, but as a fan who saw the awful teams in the 80's and early 90's, I am satisfied with how the program is rolling right now.

All good points that I don't disagree with. Hey, I remember being pissed at Onofrio for losing to KU every year, even though he was also beating top 10 teams. You don't know what you've got till it's gone.
I'm not dissatisfied with the way the program's heading, I'm just not sure where it's ultimately going. Like I said, you have to beat the patsies before taking the next step. We did that this year. I just don't know if Pinkel is capable of taking the next step up, which should be beating the big boys occasionally, whoever the league leaders are that year.
To reiterate my point, I'm just leery about committing to Pinkel right now, because I see us as being on the fence between going up, staying middle of the road or sliding back. I just think it's too early to tell. JMHO.
