Seven months prior to the 2015-16 basketball seasons, Bulls fans were ecstatic. The legendary Bobby Hurley took Buffalo to their first NCAA tournament after winning the MAC in dramatic fashion. Felisha Legette-Jack also took the women's team to their first WNIT, the first postseason berth of any kind for the program. Buffalo Basketball was on the rise and it looked like each team had a really good year ahead of them.
