i will offer my two cents

the trend goes back years and started during desko. that 2022 class with spallina was the exception, not the norm. desko's last handful of classes were not very good imo...take a look at that 2019 class. the best player was probably brandon aviles? it's a class of 16 and only like three or four guys ever saw major playing time at cuse. 2021 wasnt a whole lot better. long story short: the market forces that are creating headwinds for cuse recruiting started before gait...it may be part of the reason they moved on from dekso...

i also am not sure if the OC has the best reputation...i am not making a comment on him one way or the other, just reporting what i've heard...there was the whole dustup with spallina last year...people talk...if cuse is struggling to land top recruits on offense...it's something to at least consider.

bottom line though, the school just isnt as attractive as a destination for a 16 year old as a UNC (nothing is)...and it doesnt have the elite academic reputation that princeton or even hop can fall back on at the end of the day...cuse is recruiting with one hand tied behind their back...they have to get a lil creative
