CMSioux Posted Tuesday at 04:25 PM Posted Tuesday at 04:25 PM It's starting to sink in, BB is now like hockey, if we get a good one expect them to be around for about two years and enjoy that time. Quote

GoodGood Posted Tuesday at 04:52 PM Author Posted Tuesday at 04:52 PM It’s starting to feel like if you have a good coach, he can move on to a bigger program after a year or two 1 Quote

In sports like basketball and hockey, losing 5-8 guys every year is hard to sustain winning. SDSU men dealt with it this year and NDSU and UND are dealing with annually. In the last 2 years, NIL has put 3 UND players in Cal (ACC), Washington (Big 10), and now South Carolina (SEC). Figuring out how to sustain and kind of success when an average program losing 3 guys to schools like this is really hard. I'm not sure anyone is Summit has it figured out. 2 Quote
GoodGood Posted Tuesday at 06:47 PM Author Posted Tuesday at 06:47 PM The beautiful thing about the portal is it goes both ways. This years 1st team is a great example. This is where players transferred in from Barnstable - D3 Cluff - High major Forte - Mid major Moni - D2 Sutton - JUCO White - JUCO 1 2 Quote

McBuckets Posted Tuesday at 08:25 PM Posted Tuesday at 08:25 PM I know its been said before but this is a problem every single program in the country is dealing with this. Its the coaches job to figure out a way to be successful. No one is saying it is an easy job but we need to stop making excuses and lowering the standards 2 1 Quote
