Musketeer Madness

Xavier is what St. Louis University aspires to be in basketball. A program that consistently is among the top teams in the Atlantic 10, that consistently goes to the NCAA Tournament.

It's nice when programs look up towards your program.

It's nice when your own program isn't satisfied where it is and looks to be a team that regularly makes the Sweet 16 - possibly competes for a National Championship - and isn't satisfied with just going to the Tournament.

"Xavier is what St. Louis University aspires to be in basketball."

What. That tenure in the Convict USA League didn't give you any programs to aspire to be?

Based upon the Cincinnati media, that was the greatest league in the history of college basketball. Oh, that's right. Now the Big Greased is.
