Pretty simple, play better at the end of the year than you were at the beginning.

Like he!! they have! The worst Iowa basketball team in history beat the worst basketball team in Indiana history.... We are 2-7 over our last 9 games and 1-3 in our last 4. That's not improving, that's simply playing an opponent that sucks worse than you do.
Look at the schedule.
The beginning and end are, basically, mirror images of one another (based on W's and L's).
I really do not see much improvement.
We take one step forward, 2 steps back.
Sorry, I cannot see it any more clearly for that.
The thing that kills me everytime he is interviewed he talks about progress. We are making strides with young guys. This time of year they are not young guys, and most of these guys have played AAU for years against the same type of competition. So I am through with improvement...show me how they have improved. Tell me how they are improving...coachspeak.
And that's something they actually have done.
Not really... - see NW game
