They should have been upper-tier this past season. Sancomb had an awful lot of success prior to the Mon Valley. I doubt he's any different now than he was at Wheeling Jesuit. Sounds like he just recruited a lot of whiny players.
As for last season they could have done better W/L wise but the relationships were too new, IMO, to expect them to be elite. I was content with dangerous. Time will tell as far as DS long term, but we are light years beyond the latter BROWN era.

Unless you're talking about a bench player on his family's or community's choice, where he can bask in the glory of 4 years as a practice dummy, then yes that's probably the case. On an established or up and coming team, players #8-11 can find another program where they will start even if the team itself is not that successful. And players like MACADAMS or HOUSE simply use their opportunity to showcase the talent that they likely felt was overlooked to begin with.
I don't know if others share this view but this tendency to move seems to be creeping into WBB, though at a much slower pace. As evidenced by this news story, the fans of the ALBRIGHT LIONS WBB are not too pleased with JESS STROM right now.

Don't know that the MON VALLEY is a big step up from READING, but sometimes perception is everything.

Correct. Look at your new boy, Boswell. This is his third school -- and he quit on his most recent team this year in mid-Feb.
The last three big departures from Cal left after their true freshmen year. I wouldn't really call an 18-year-old real loyal after just one year. California isn't exactly a thrilling college town, either. Players notice playing in a 6,000 seat funeral home in front of 127 people, too. The Angelo Dome looks cool on a recruiting visit -- but terrible on game night when it's empty.

Along with BOSWELL these are numerically the replacements for those who left. Talent wise only time will tell.Last edited by CALUPA69; 05-19-2020, 08:52 AM.
