Wonder when Izzo will start taking some heat for it?? Nah, it's Izzo he'll get a pass.
He'd like the heat he'll be facing be as a result of this.....
But I think he gets something of a pass for the results because in 7 of the prior 8 years before these 3 years- he had made the 2nd weekend in 7/8 years with 3 final 4's.

Yet Jay took quite a bit of heat for this even though since he's been at Nova he has 6 - S16's, 3 - E8's, 2 - F4's, and 1 Natty (and still alive this year). So Jay doesn't deserve something of a pass??? Don't answer that, I know, of course he doesn't in your eyes.
3 years is a short term trend, if Jay deserved some heat(he did, some ... not as much as he got though) than Izzo and other name coaches should take some heat for their lolls. It comes with the job.

the '16 Natty changed things for him. Before he had that- so entering the '16 tourney- he had since his FF in '09-
10- lost in rd 2 as a 2 seed
11- lost in rd 1 as a 9 seed
12- lost in rd 1 as a 9 seed
14- lost in rd 2 as a 2 seed
15- lost in rd 2 as a 1 seed
so 3 flameouts in 6 years as a 1 or 2 seed.
Izzo had since 15-
16- lost in rd 1 as a 2 seed
17- lost in rd 2 as a 9 seed
18- lost in rd 2 as a 3 seed
Jay gets the pass now. But before '16- nope. Izzo what he's had in last 3 years isn't as bad yet as what Wright had entering the '16 tourney.

Of course, there isn't (that I know of...) knowledge of a rampant sexual abuse scandal with the Villanova team doctor, there aren't questions about who knew what and when, nor was there ever remarkably tone-deaf comments by Jay about sexual assault. Izzo has all of that on his resume right now.
