Let's start with this, Our recruiting the last two years has produced 4 excellent player/prospects.  We hit it big time with Lydon and Mali.  Lydon in the 80's was way under valued.  Mali in the 20's, same thing.  This year, battle and Thompson were also under valued.  4 starters.  The problem is that we have not signed the top 20 recruit in either class.   We are a national program.  We have the best practice facility in the country.  Bar none.  We have still a great place to play our games.  The Dome and it's 30,000 seats has to be a selling spot.  and yet two years running, more really, we have not even been in the game with the top recruits.  is anyone confident that  things will change this year?  I'm not.  All of this other talk is blue smoke and mirrors.  People want Lydon to be the player he isn't right now.  A soph that gets 13 pts a game and 8 and a half rebounds a game is very good.  Not to mention 80+ from the free throw line and 40+ from 3.  but because we didn't get the guy that should have been the Man, we expect Tyler to be what he isn't yet.  We can all debate about our offense scheme or the zone, it's players.  We also hit a HR with the two 5th year guys.  Can we hope to do as well again next year?  Good luck with that. We need a rainmaker on this staff.  What's Troy weaver where you need him?
