Exactly. Which is why I can't blame the FBI crap on our current state any longer. The FBI has nothing to do with our current recruiting struggles to land anyone who's taller than 6'4.

It shouldn't be some impossible feat to sign 4 players in a class in order to address all your needs. Like I mentioned above in point #2, the fact that we didn't sign a single big in this 2021 HS class, when it's our biggest need, is a colossal failure. Look at our projected roster for next...

I think we'd be a bubble team (at best) at full or close to full strength. Lykes would obviously help us offensively, but he would also take away from some of Wong's and Kam's touches and scoring, too. So when someone says "we lose 15 ppg+ with Lykes out", I don't think that's 100% true...

On paper, being ranked 25 to 30th isn't what we should be striving for but it SHOULD be enough to field a decent team in the ACC. But let's dig deeper. This is who we've signed since the FBI cost us the 2018 class (going off of 247's rankings): 2019: 4 star guard Beverly, ranked #54 in the...

I can do math, I'm aware. We've had plenty of time to fill in those holes thru transfers and other recruiting classes. Yet we are struggling to field a roster 3+ years later. Will you use this as an excuse next year as well? When does the FBI excuse expire? 2025?

We had legit point guards on most of those squads that masked our offensive deficiencies. Also, our stagnant offense and ill advised turnovers were part of why we blew that Loyola game. I never said they are causing injuries, but at some point, our approach needs to be closely examined. The...

That was 2018. This is 2021. How long can we continue to blame our current failures on the FBI and Dewan's ruling?

It might fix our archaic, stagnant offense. It might fix our lack of in-state and big man recruiting. A new coach might bring in a whole new training staff that leads to less injuries.

Exactly. How long are we going to use it as an excuse? It's the same BS "cloud" excuse Golden used for his whole tenure. Yes, it had an impact, but at some point you need to be able to adjust and overcome and move on from it.

Cue the resident slurpers in 3, 2, 1....
