That’s still debatable though if he has had a first good season just yet. He has yet to beat a top tier team at home or on the road. No AP top 25 wins just yet. Yeah he did beat IU on the road but IU is a projected 9 seed at the moment and his other tourney quality wins are home wins over UCLA and USC 2 teams projected lower than IU. Most have those teams in the Last 4 in or last 4 byes which is squarely on the bubble. Non con Sos 259 and overall of 68. They are trending down with a tough schedule to play. They could easily play themselves out of the tourney. They have definitely played themselves to being close to bent on the bubble.
My thing we Iowa was people were using McCollum and Iowa’s season as a point to show how IU and DeVries should of been doing it in year 1 and you could argue that IU has had the better season despite losing to them at home. Luckily for Iowa they have 6 games left to get it turned back around
