HOPE SPRINGS ETERNAL

At this point in the 1985-86 season, we were 4-9, and that year ended up being arguably the high water mark for the program (the Notre Dame win in the NCAA tournament). Can lightning strike again? Possibly, but in recently years we have been so snake bit that we just naturally assume the worst. We have been the 3rd or 4th best team in the SBC over the last decade and no postseason to show for it. However, hope springs eternal in the human breast. Maybe this is the year.
