Message: [QUOTE="Flacusian, post: 2114628, member: 264"] In pursuit of a second consecutive National championship and we anxiously await for the second consecutive year if we are going to be on the right side of the bubble. My how things have changed. With the departure of (at the very least) AW3, Gillon, & Roberson and perhaps even JB, one has to wonder how we will find ourselves a year from today. We are faced with another season without a true point guard and although Moyer will be added along with Sidibe and Brissett we are looking at relying on Battle and Howard as our only guards. It would seem that we will need to rely on the 5th year transfer market again to help plug the shortfall in recruiting. If it were not for AW3 and Gillon I can't even imagine what this season would have looked like. As much as I am a lifelong diehard maniacal fan of the program I have to admit that I don't see anything really promising coming up over the horizon. I suppose there is still the spring recruiting period which commences on March 6th... but has anyone really heard any significant buzz about us landing anyone of any consequence?...crickets... from what I've been able to find. With as much ado that was made out of our landing in the ACC and leaving the remnants of the Big East behind, when you look at what Nova has been able to accomplish it does make one wonder. Granted, it can be argued that long term the best landing place for the program was in the ACC and there have been other considerations which have led to the current state we find the program in... NCAA sanctions and recruiting penalties and an uncertain cloudy timetable for JB's retirement, but there seems to be a lot more questions than answers with respect to the direction of the program as we sit an await our fate on this hallowed day of College Basketball.
