What Defines a Successful Season?

[Goose85]

MU finishes second in the Big East, our highest finish ever in the conference. We have a 3 seed, are ranked 11, Crowder as Big East POY, DJO first team Big East, overcame injuries to Otule and for a period of time Gardner.

So, is this already considered an overall successful season, or is more work needed to meet season expectations (not be a disappointing season)?

1. Already a successful season based on Big East finish and the way the team played, even if we are one and done.
2. One tourney win is needed for it to be a successful season.
3. Need to reach at least the sweet 16.
4. Need to go further than sweet 16.

Of course I'm happy with the way the year went, and I think we had a very successful regular season. I was expecting sweet 16 coming into the year so I would say anything less would be disappointing (doesn't mean I am not happy with the season, just think sweet 16 is needed). I will pick 3.
