So I am wondering which would you rather have. I certainly think an ideal situation would be to have a decent run in the NCAA's, but let us assume the following:

-Arkansas players next year will not be 1 and done (expecting all to play to Junior Year or more)
-Arkansas team will be even more inconsistent than normal CMA teams because of the significant youth on the team.

With those given, would it be better for the program to actually barely miss out on the NCAA nad grab a 1 seed in the NIT, or flame out like this current team did?

if they do what they did this year then it was a really good season

I'm wondering with the NCAA investigation if there is any chance CMA gets some unexpected transfers that can make a significant difference.  Outside of that, I'm not sure how I'd rather this team play out next season.  I'm afraid if CMA doesn't do something major to tighten up the court play then its not going to matter what potential this young team has in 2019-2020 because I don't think CMA will be there to coach them.  Just my opinion.

Good grief.

 I'm not trying to be an ass but for you to even have to ask this question shows how far we've fallen. It's not your fault however, lots have been brainwashed into thinking this is as good as we can do. I do understand the concept of your question and for me it's always always always the dance.

Why is that an either/or? Some teams made the sweet 16 this year with crazy young teams.
