I didn't say "fire him", but we had a lot of losses that had me worried about this season. As recently as the Wake Forest game, we looked like we would need to win the SEC regular season (and maybe the conference tourney) to get into the NCAA's.
Right now we probably don't have the cold hard numbers to justify a bid, but somehow, I don't see a committee leaving Ben Simmons out of the big dance. I mean, we beat Kentucky, Simmons has an average game (14/10) while Quarterman has a dominant game, and ESPN cuts back to interview ... Simmons.

If this team finishes with 18 wins, they will get in. There will be an outcry nationally, but ESPN etc will make sure Simmons has at least one showcase.
