Message: [QUOTE="OttoinGrotto, post: 5727040, member: 297"] Right, but here's the problem - at Siena he hasn't been recruiting the guys that would be difference makers in the ACC. Gerry got some experience as the head man, which was needed. But the level is so different, AND it's compounded by the fact that he was regularly the bridesmaid when he was our lead recruiter. Boeheim didn't put him in position to succeed and didn't help him much, but the following things have to be true: 1, sufficient dollars are there 2, Gerry and staff can identify talent that will come here that isn't just mercenary pay me first guys 3, the "culture" takes hold among whatever combo of holdovers, Siena guys, and new portal/recruiting additions gets thrown together 4, this combination all works such that we end up with a combination that puts us toward the top of the ACC, relative to all other ACC programs I just view the likelihood of this being very low.
