I agree downturns happen to every program. And i agree every fan should be patient,  SUs time will come again most certainly!  its amazing how quickly we take for granted our elite 8 and FF runs to finish our Big East career. And you mention the ncaa stuff which has certainly had some impact, but i think theres another dynamic that needs to keep paying attention to- and thats our switch to Acc. Look at SU, UL, ND and Pitts switch to ACC , theres been some struggles, and certainly some of it is recruiting dynamics. Uconn could certainly be heading for the same type of struggles in the Aac, probably already are.  Then look at Providence, Vill, Butler, Xavier are doing quite well this year in Big East, maybe some of it is due to recruiting dynamics since the reshuffling in BE.  Obviously you could argue Providence has outrecruited the teams that left the Big East the last few years, maybe maybe not. Now im not arguing whether or not we should have moved to acc, thats a done deal and i assume all will be great long term. But i think we have new recruiting battle dynamics now that we have moved to ACC and that could take a few years to adjust to. Hopefully the signing of Battle/Moyer and the transfer of Pascal (and Mal/Lydon/FH appear to be tremendous recruits) says the adjustment is already over. Worth keeping an eye on tho......
