1) A preseason tournament

2, it's nice on the eyes and probably means some fringe guys lit it up and that's somewhat interesting.
2) Your conference's regular season title

4, 12 straight times kind of dilutes the joy of it. Even if it's absurdly impressive.

3) Your conference's tournament title

2, similar logic to one

4) Making the tournament

1, not making the tournament with the resources Kansas has is grounds for a seat warmer if not an outright hot seat.

5) Making the Sweet 16

5, while I am pleased, it is the expectation, regardless of tournament volatility, not a goal.

6) Making the Final 4

8, had to get a little lucky (and good) most likely to get this far, but getting so far shouldn't be diminished but for one thing: it's not a title

7) Winning the NCAA Tournament

10- championships last forever

8) Winning the NIT

1- see 4

As a Gophers fan let's just say I have little to no expectation. I honestly can't even fathom a final four appearance, that's why just making the tournament is such a big deal to me. Don't forget we have ONE non vacated NCAA tournament win in the last quarter century(2013).

4 - Hopefully there is a good team in there to make it worth it

8 - I put a lot of weight on reg season titles

3 - This is largely for getting the teams trying to get in, and maybe moving up a seed

3 - If my team doesn't dance, we had bigger problems

8 - a good baseline for a successful tourney

10 - Hang that banner

10 - Speaks for itself

1 - Doesn't mean shit to me

I think that winning 25 or 30 games in a season is also a good measure of importance, and so is being undefeated at home. Those mean more to me than winning the conference tourney, or winning the NIT, etc.

To me the conference tournament and the NCAA tournament are the ones I want to see my team win the most.

used to have high expectations, but have absolutely zero expectations due to what has happened in the past six seasons.
