I'm hoping NCAA tourny every year. It honestly is a reasonable expectation considering the size of our athletic program and the talent we have coming in/back next year.

Be in the tourney every year, win some games. Make a run, Sweet 16 or better, at least one year out of five.

We make it next year to NCAA as a 8-10 seed. I'd like to see us improve on that at least once with maybe a sweet sixteen game or two.

At least three NCAA appearances and one Sweet 16 should be something we can acheive on a consistent basis. Maybe an Elite Eight or Final Four run every ten years or so.

Hopefully LSU will get a road game at Robert Morris in the NIT.

As a program, I think a postseason tourney every year is the standard I'd love for LSU.

But in reality, you want NCAA > NIT, so I will say 5:0 or 4:1 or 3:2. A consistent contender means a lot to me.

Maybe you have a deep run, maybe you get knocked out in 64. But at least you;re in the top 80 or so every year in basketball.

I'll honestly be surprised if we don't have 20 wins each year

We should be finishing anywhere from 4th to 6th in the conference. That should put us solidly in the NIT and sometimes in the NCAA.

There is no reason why we cannot be the best of what used to be the SEC West at least once every 2 or 3 years. Florida, Kentucky, and Missouri are the only programs that are clearly ahead of the pack at this point. 4th is up for grabs but the competition for it is stiff. Ole Miss did it this year (taking advantage of a rare weak year for UK).

We have to get the players that can compete consistently against the top of the conference and win a few of those while always beating the worst conference teams and pulling off a few upsets of higher-ranked out of conference opponents.
