Well we see what Schaefer can do with these talent level, but it will drop off significantly next year, even with a solid recruiting class because they will have to play as freshmen. That is when you can tell if he is a reloader like Pat and Geno, or just a good coach when he has great talent. He has definitely help this group of seniors and juniors improve. Let's see what he does without William, Vivians and Schaefer next year.
I just don't think I have read a more idiotic post on this message board than this one .. ever! Seem to recall similar type posts from last year when we lost that final NC game. Yea, last year was 'supposed' to have been our 'best shot' at a WBB championship .. and the 'woe is us' we lose too much, the 'core' of the team, (SRs Dominique Dillingham, Ketara Chapel, Chinwe Okorie & Breanna Richardson) to ever challenge again kinda BS posts.
Facts .. yes, MSU loses Blair, Morgan, Roshunda & Vivians BUT you are making an assumption that the other 8 on the team are NOT improving each and every day.
Vic DEVELOPS players. McCowan averaged 6.6 (49%) and 5.6 rebounds as a FR .. as a JR she is averaging 20.5 (64%) and 13 rebounds a game. She can DOMINATE a game. If you can't see the development of Blair, who averaged 2.8 pts/game as a freshmen, to the player she is today, then you are just blind. Vivians has gone from a low percentage 'volume shooter' to a ".. stone cold killer" (UT message board poster).
Meanwhile, Vic has 3 players committed for next year .. 6-5 C, #48 nationally, 5* (recently had a 69 point, 19 rebound, 7 block game), 6-3 F, #49 Nationally, 5* & a 6-1 G, #54 nationally, 4*.
Plus, T returns along with .. Chloe, Jazzmun, Campbell, Danberry .. etc.
Meanwhile, we are 1 of 2 remaining unbeaten teams, are #2 nationally, and we are playing the best BB of the year.
