Taken from a prior post from @Scarlet Shack that provides historical context and the way forward:

It’s time to get this straight

first …we are where we are right now becasue we went three straight recruiting classes off of NCAA success with this

class of 2022- 0 for 3 (Simpson , chol , wolfolk)
Class of 2023-1 for 2 (Griffth and Jmike )
Class of 2024-2 for3 (sommwrville , grant and Dortch )

Combines with number 2

2….we didn’t get it done in the portal to fix those mistakes . Some was lack of money for sure …

so…..right now , this is what I want ….but no one wants to be patient

1.) play these 7 guys at least 20 and perferabky 24 minute and plan to fund to retain

Buchannan-Jr
grant -so
Dortch-so
Nuwuli -Fr
Badalau-Fr
Mark-Fr
Powers -Fr

I don’t care if we get hammered in Vegas. Let them play for 10-15 games together …take out lunps and they will get better and I think we will be a lot tougher out for the last 8 games , eaepcallly the last 4 at the RAC …

Yes….that is likely making us 11-20….but we aren’t getting a massive portal class ….so getting these guys going , with adding reinforcements in the guard (jones and Wooten, and hopefully bivens )…..can change the narrative for the following year

we have pieces …and they are soph and frosh . Take the lumps and get a foundation set to build off of

look, in year 10….should this be where we should be ….??? HELL NO

but I’m going to deal with what is ….and this is our path to getting this fixed in 2 years
…..with juniors and sophs ….amd a couple of seniors

Develop and retain and keep adding pcs ……we added two more for next year …need to add two more the year after
