retired, Yoeli was leaving, Nick Emery created a huge mess for BYU, and it looked like Pope was inheriting a rebuild year with TJ being his only guy.

There was no Yoeli, there was no Toolson, there was no Barcello. No one expected Lee, Nixon, or Seljaas to contribute.

No one thought we'd be talking about single-digit seedings after a win over Gonzaga. It's nuts.

Major props to Pope, that's some amazing coaching.
