MountainBear I am curious, now that Junior College doesn’t have the added benefit of allowing immediate transfer, D2 is just as valid a recruiting ground now. Not sure the difference in level of competition but an interesting change with the new portal era.
MountainBear Hopefully Marable is still coming, and between him, Byrne, Applegate, and Mason we will have enough frontcourt depth.

MountainBear You know one thing about these Aussie players is I hope they end up like Cato, stayed and developed over 4 years; skilled high IQ players.
UCABEARS75 JoshUCA the answer is pretty much 100% $$$. we have D2 support at best. Rank near the bottom of the conference in every category related to $$$. ie coaches salaries, facilities, NIL
MountainBear I think winning in the conference tourney again and pulling in a solid roster can turn that support around though!
