Getting to Tournament Not Enough for Them

Four weeks ago, Henry Bibby couldn’t understand why his Trojan basketball team wasn’t considered one of the best teams in the nation. Two weeks ago, Bibby couldn’t understand why his Pac-10 runner-up was still considered a longshot to make the NCAA tournament.

Well, after USC’s quick exit, Coach Bibby should now understand. If you want some respect, leave the cupcakes off the schedule next year. You might want to beat some ranked teams on the road too. Oh yeah, stop whining. The Harrick routine doesn’t get you any respect, either.
