I believe our expectations should be the following:
1) Be a final four contender every other year (realizing this may result in an expected early exit, but we should be considered in the running
2) Be a tournament level team nearly every year, probably 9 out of 10 years
3) Be challenging for the league title almost every year, maybe finishing top 3. But winning a championship about 4 out of 10 times.
4) At least one final four in a 10 year span. Whether we were a heavy favorite to do so entering as a 1 or 2 seed, or making an unexpected run as 3-6 seed.
5) Staying in the top 25 about 85% of the time.
6) Consistently bringing in top 40 recruiting classes, and top 3 AAC classes
7) Creating a pipleine with local talent, possibly having a somewhat local kid (100 mile radius) every other year.
8) Producing at least one NBA player every 4 year cycle
9) At least 3 sweet 16's in a 10 year span
10) Win totals should consistently be over 25 W per year
10) OOC SOS should be top 25 consistently, with our league not providing many opportunities for quality wins
11) Continuing to graduate players on a consistent basis and have good quality players that represent the school well
12) Coming close to winning a national championship or perhaps doing the whole thing. I realize winning the whole thing is a little unrealistic, but it would be nice to get close or be discussed as a heavy favorite at least once. Winning it would probably exceed my expectations.
