Super cool of you to come on here Ty! So how are our chances looking for landing Austin Staats after he finishes his gap year in the NLL?

But in all seriousness, obviously the main thing bumming out Cuse fans recently was the awful slew of class of 2020 decommits last year, along with Zawada in 2019. Obviously don't expect you to have all the answers here, but did you personally perceive that as

1. Some kind of chain reaction where recruits saw a couple of our top kids bail and started thinking something like: "Damn maybe I should look at other options too, now that my recruiting class looks less strong. I was planning on coming in with all those top guys."

or

2.  Each of those kids having their own individual reasons (academics, doubts about Cuse's potential for success unrelated to their recruiting class, successful poaching attempts, etc.) and the news of each just all coming out around the same time.

Could it also have been some combination of the two?

Again not sure if that is the type of thing you would have inside info on, but we would all love to hear your thoughts. Then maybe when you're done you could butter us up by telling us how good Owen Hiltz looks to end things on a positive note, but obviously no rush, sir. Again, really appreciate you doing this!
