It's obviously slow around here. Let's use our downtime productively. Whitford hasn't and isn't going to be adding any of the regular sort of banners to the ceiling. And, thanks to the extension (which was actually supported by some here) we are stuck with him. Let's think up some banners based on things he has or could realistically accomplish. I'll start with his finest accomplishment

Nothing is more impressive and intimidating than walking into somebody's arena and seeing a long series of consecutive year banners noting some championships or something. Of course, BSU doesn't have anything except a long series of terribleness for a couple decades. However, I am inspired by the words of Delta Tau Chi President Hoover in the movie Animal House. He noted to the disciplinary council that "The Delta house has a long tradition of existence to its members and to the community at large".
So we could put up a long series of banners, possibly going back to the Buckley era, each looking something like this:

I disagree on the trip being meaningless. If you quantify based strictly on competition, then yes, but that is only a part of what a trip like that is supposed to mean to a team.

Let's not for a minute forget the pinnacle of Whitford's post season accomplishments, that electrified Muncie and had the whole nation buzzing about BSU:

Here is a series of banners that might not impress anyone, but would explain the lack of attendance to anyone not familiar with the program:

2006 REALLY Bad Coaching Hire
------------------
2007 Bad Coaching Hire ------------------

Let's not forget this 2017 Kenpom 2nd Worst NCSOS I think that would be: 2017 | Kenpom | Worst NCSOS | Runnerup |
Makes it sound more like we were in contention.
