That is either an indication that our coaching is terrible or that our recruiting is soooo good that it has set unreasonable expectations for success.

I tend to believe the latter.

Can't completely disagree. We should have at least 1 more championship. Either 2010 or 15. I say 1 more because it isn't always the best team that wins, but we should have got at least one. I think it is mostly overhype on the freshmen, but we still should have at least 1 more

We certainly have won it all in 2015, the team that lost to Wisconsin was clearly the most talented team in the Nation. I felt Cal cost them that game by letting the air out of the ball during the last five and a half minutes of the game after coming back from a 12 point defecit, having the ball and momentum but choosing to play stall ball and have three straight shot clock violations. Bo Ryan did out coach Cal the last five minutes of that game. The 2010 team also had the best talent in the nation but lost to a 1-3-1 zone by making only 4 of 32 three point shots instead of working the ball inside to Boogie and company.
