Here is how I see the Norm era playing out:
After finishing the season 15-15 SJU plays Rutgers in the 1st round of the BET. Rutgers wins 20-18 in front of 18 people. Norm blames Malik Boothe's height for the loss. "Our point guard needs to get taller!. It is something he is working on in the offseason." The next day RSHF claims that he was there in person and that in person SJU scored more points than they did on TV.

Despite a 15-16 record SJU gets a CIB bid. In the CIB final in front of 23 rabid fans SJU beats NJ Tech 14-13. After the final buzzer Anthony Mason jr climbs on to the rim to recreate the famous Billy Goodwin moment. Unfortunately while climbing up and trying to balance the WE ARE SJU sign and a sign that says we are number 365, Mase falls and breaks his pancreas. This was a very tough break as he was slated to play with Geno in Khakashtan the following year.

During the off season Chris Monasch goes on Mike Francessa's show saying he was misquoted and he meant the CIB not the NCAA. "The CIB is an up and coming tourney and honestly even if we had received an NCAA bid we would have refused it in favor of the CIB."Monasch was quoted as saying. Mike then claimed he knew SJU would win the CIB as far back as 1992.

Malik Boothe shows up on campus 4 inches bigger having worked out all off season with that device they used to torture William Wallace in Braveheart. Malik is now 5 foot 4 inches tall.
During half time of the first game of the 2010-2011 season the PA announcer welcomes back Anthony Mason to help hang the CIB banner. Mase slips and falls and breaks his spleen.
Chris Monasch claims in an interview with Francessa that nothing  short of a CIB repeat will be acceptable.
In their only ESPN appearance SJU losses to Georgetown 85-10. Bobby Knight throws a chair at Norm and is fired from ESPN. The next day Baldi still insists that we are better than Gtown and RSHF claims that he was at the game and we def scored more than 10 points.
SJU finishes the season with a 20-12 record despite averaging 32 points a game. SJU accepts an invite to the NIT where they lose to Oakland on a last second jumper by Larry Wright. After the game Norm blames the loss on Rob Thomas' age. "Our backup forwards will get younger. We can't have our players falling asleep on the bench during games." Thomas blamed the late starting time for his failure to stay awake."Those 7pm games are tough man." He was quoted as saying.
Justin Burrell in his senior year rebounds to average 10 points 6 boards and 5689 posts about him on various SJU websites.

After Norm's first NIT appearance and first 20 win season he is immediately fired by Monasch for not making the CIB.

Norm is replaced by Khakastan's all time leader in turnovers Eugene Lawrence, who claims that he wants to slow down the SJU offense. Mason is names asst coach but shows up to the press conference in a head to toe cast.

RSHF throws his allegiance to Geno but no one will ever know about it as Dave is so distraught by the recent turn of events that he disbands this site starts taking roids and joins the cast of the third season of The Jersey Shore.

You left out from next year:

"We are sju will brag about his relationship with his wife, since he plans a trip to AC with the guys.  A week later whe interrogated he will claim it fell through bc of weather/illness/power outage in ac/geno being the driver and getting there too slow.   All the while mrs wasju will laugh at him and say "honey, you still are lying to your internet friends to try to seem cool?".   That said he will still be happily married and have a great kid so one day he will get over not really being able to go to ac...larry wright on the other hand, is a whole other story.

I think she knew the weather report in advance when I got the Ok ;) All my friends are now married with children, well the ones who can afford to go AC anyway, so trying to organize anything including a roto draft becomes a chore. You will see IT WILL HAPPEN TO YOU TOO!
