First season in D1.
Chose a sentimental school (my wife's alma mater - she hooped at Furman U. in SC) rather than looking for the "best" D- school I qualified for. Gutted the team in my first RS2. Prioritized starts & minutes for young guys over trying to win since I knew this would be a bad season.
All that added up to 0-26 in the regular season.
Reconfigured the depth chart & game plan to actually try to win our first conf. tourney game...
and won 68-57. Conf. tourney 3-seed Chattanooga is going home, and 6-seed Furman lives to fight another day.
Somehow this win after starting 0-26 just feels better than I expected!
