HOUSTON (AP) – Butler’s return to the Final Four didn’t surprise the Bulldogs, who have come to expect this kind of success.
Like Gonzaga before them, the Bulldogs have transformed themselves into a mid-major contender with solid players who tend to stay in school.
Senior Shawn Vanzant says past teams set the foundation for the current success. Butler has been to five straight NCAA tournaments and will play fellow mid-major Virginia Commonwealth University on Saturday.
The Bulldogs don’t feel as if they must work their way up to being a power program. In their eyes, they’re already a powerhouse.
