    Recruiting, but it's not an overnight fix without HS kids

    We have seen the results now for a few classes in a row, on what happens if you ignore HS recruiting....adding Dylan Harper and Ace Bailey to this mix, ultimately doesn't make sense as a long term solution, the problem gets fixed by getting players from freshman year to senior year.....it is the...

    Wow!

    The overall record is considered an off year or based on injury.....it happens....there's a difference between a sub .500 Creighton roster and a sub .500 Minnesota roster.....Minnesota is in our league but doesnt mean Minnesota, RU, Penn State etc are better talent wise than Creighton.

    Wow!

    Creighton has 8 4* kids out of HS or via the portal.....the only reason they didnt make the NCAAS this year was because Iowa transfer Owen Freeman had a knee injury and another 4* Top 50 big, broke his foot and missed this season. Creighton, like Oklahoma, Auburn and others like USC, Oregon...

    2027 NCAA for RU?

    There is literally no chance that Pike is gone after next year, based on 1 year of NIL, that is still last in the B1G or bottom 3 in the B1G. You dont assess coaches after 1 season..... If that was the case, Schiano would have been gone after an atrocious defensive roster and barely making 2...

    2027 NCAA for RU?

    Everyone is a superior coach when you have better players or the money to find them.....AND have the money to replace the mistakes or misses. Keep in mind, Gavin Griffiths was a Top 50 recruit....and so was Pryce Sandfort who was also at Iowa under Fran McCaffery. Hoiberg got Gavin Griffiths...

    2027 NCAA for RU?

    There's 3 problems fans still cant digest and its obvious that no one understands basketball AND what league we compete in. A) RU is closer to a Villanova, Santa Clara, SMU and others.....I know people dont believe it, but so are Washington and Indiana and USC. USC beat Seton Hall on a neutral...

    Miami of Ohio

    The lack of awareness about fans just continues to show and it is why fans are clueless about coaching. Travis Steele is the Miami of Ohio coach and is now "stuck there", because he was provided very good NIL and resources at Xavier in the Big East and blew numerous games and had poor roster...

    NIL and Recruiting

    Hans Steinbach, the 5* Center who was a freshman international recruit and played at Washington this past season, had a price tag around 4M...... The prior year, before Utah State coach Danny Sprinkle left there to go to Washington, one of the conditions on taking the job, was to ensure he had...

    NIL and Recruiting

    Michigan is closer to 20M all in for their current roster. Sparty north of 15M, same as Indiana, Illinois and USC, Washington. UCLA is around 15M but less than these schools in the B1G.

    Player evals from our team and coaching changes

    They have said that for 3 to 4 years running, I guess if you keep repeating the same thing, eventually you would be right as a podcast person.

    We are deluding ourselves

    The problem is, RU has never gotten close to 8M, so if we leapfrog to 10M, it would be the 1st year we have decent resources. It is up to Kelli Zinn to not mislead the fanbase on what's taking place. We were told money was raised and Schiano provided the 18th ranked B1G transfer class out of 18...

    We are deluding ourselves

    I gave you 30+ teams with more NIL and the answer you come up with is one school that was in the Crown tournament last year and is severely an overachiever in Year 6 under Hoiberg. I think he runs an excellent system and Nebraska has zero NCAA wins in their history. I could easily argue that...

    We are deluding ourselves

    You're missing the point....how many are equal or ahead in terms of metrics, which is what the NCAA uses to determine what teams are on the bubble?? No one said anything about hopeless.....I am saying that you and others believe you can skip steps without major NIL are somewhat out of touch...
  14. NewJerseyHawk

    We are deluding ourselves

    The inability for fans to digest reality and others saying 8M to 10M is OK because its comparable to the watered down Big East, is how clueless fans are. There are 8 schools in the B1G NOT in the NCAAS with more NIL than RU... Indiana, USC, Oregon, Washington, Minnesota, Northwestern, Maryland...

    Who would Have Thought…

    We will be here next year discussing the bad information floating around that 10M is an actual budget, which is still 15th to 18th in the B1G and bottom 15% in Power 4 programs nationally. You cannot win on a shoe string budget, 10M gets you a NCAA tournament starting 5, not a 13 player roster...
