They'll probably beat ISU, let's be real. Next year would be the drop off if there is a big one coming. They have a lot of stud seniors on defense this year. We need to catch them instead of hoping they fall down to our level.
I wouldn't be surprised if Ivery burst onto the scene in camp. A new coaching staff is just what the doctor ordered for him.
I'm also very intrigued to see how Ferguson does.
If we can get 1-3 high quality transfers a year that would be about right for chemistry and culture purposes. This year is an outlier because of the lack of depth from the mass exodus that occurred. We needed to load up on transfers this year and we did. In the next couple years we'll most likely see fewer and fewer transfers as depth is built through hs recruiting.
They have loads of them. It's been working well for them too... I'd rather develop hardworking kids for 5 years and establish culture instead of hoping 2 year FBS transfers with minimal investment can be the backbone like at PSU.
It's a bit different though. We don't have as many teams and not anywhere near the prestige in our tournament. Also the population base is a bit different as well.
Not enough room. The X is packed for that tourny. It's a special thing. The section tournys are in the smaller towns and they all lead to the big city with the big venue. It's done right.
