Do we go after the biggest D1 names entering or getting guys like we have with Schaeffer & Nicholson, we have been successful there, imo.
Are there bidding wars as we see in basketball & football, maybe not to that degree, however?

Forbes' MO has been the latter, usually finding the right fits at smaller schools than chasing the biggest names.

Consider this list of portal era signings ...

Hull - George Mason
Winslow - Duke
Schaffner - ND State
Paulsen - Stony Brook
Hynek - GaState
Kepley - Liberty
Bass - Wesleyan
Angelo - Montclair St.
Chmielewski - Princeton
Donofrio - Quinnipiac
Madera - Arcadia
Harbor - Georgia
Sprague - Elon
Hough - Fay Tech

I do not know Forbes's plan, but I would go after Savoie for sure. He would be familiar with the comp and has produced at a high level. However, he may be too high priced.

What an unbelievable job from Coach Forbes & staff. There’s about 8 All ACC types on that list and probably 3-4 All American types. Incredible work.
