It is clear to me, based on recent recruiting events that:
1. Syracuse is not a player for hoopers rated in the top 30! Players rated 30- 50, we are having trouble converting. Players 50 - 100, seem more realistic.
2. We can be successful in the secondary market, called the transfer portal, and you can build good teams this way. Some of these players we missed out on the first time around, may be unhappy with their first choice and consider us the second time around
3. Win baby win. Once we start winning, our ability to recruit players in the upper rankings, should increase.
Lastly, it is hard to forget, that in Coach Q's last year, he signed two players rankled in the top 10 and this was pre NIL...So, top players can be recruited to Syracuse...but money is a bigger factor now...then ever before!
