Also, while unintentional by you, any comparison with 2015 is loaded with implications since that was our last championship team (and our only Final Four team in the past 10 seasons). Unfortunately, next year's team doesn't measure up in terms of talent, and so to reference 2015 is just to make us sad :-). Just giving you some insight as to why I (and perhaps others) were immediately annoyed by that comparison.
