And yet we've made O-N-E NCAA tournament appearance in that time.  College basketball grants more access than FBS football to the "National Championship Playoff", but it still ain't good.

Aren't there, like, 3x as many teams/programs fighting for the same playoff in MBB compared to D1 football and its playoff?

There are 4 playoff spots for FBS football and over 130 teams.  There are 68 playoff/tournament spots for D1 basketball with 351 teams.  So no, the ratio is not the same.

We won the conference in 2000, were hosting the CUSA tournament and very likely would have been going to the NCAA Tourney.

I hear what you are saying, but we won the conference 3 years in a row in the regular season but only saw 1 tournament appearance out of that.  While I tend to think that that 2020 team was the best team McCasland had in his time here, there was no guarantee we were going to win the tournament....which we would have had to do b/c CUSA was a 1 bid league.
