    I’m not caught up in credit for a year either way. Give it to him or don’t. He’s got to string together several classes in a row for us to get back to relevant. And if he does get us back to relevant, he’ll get all the credit he wants. Until then, I’m in wait and see mode on credit.

    I’m not really interested in whether we’re relatively better or luckier flr a year than those programs. My interest is whether we’re doing the things to set the stage for comtinued success.

    I haven’t seen a lot from manny to be optimistic about before this season. He’s quick to fix mistakes but he sure makes a lot. My concern was he was more flash than substance, more talk than process. But we have better recruiters on staff and, I think, Manny better understands recruiting than...

    We got a lot of them last cycle. But it was an usual cycle because covid and one datapoint doesn’t create a trend. If we do well this cycle, which is less favorable overall to us in terms of local kids, it’ll start to look like a trend.

    Lol. If never winning the ACC in … ever … means ‘relevant’ to you, you’re defining the word out of existence.

    Cautiously optimistic. More on approach than outcome. It’s an uncertain business but it feels like we’re executing a plan more consistently than before. Where it ends up I don’t know. We’ve got some legit recruiters on staff now, but it’s the overall approach I’m sensing. There’s that old...

    Late year the local options were a bit better and kids hd already gotten to know the staff pre-covid. Hence my post that it’s different this cycle ..l but feels like we’re recruiting with a plan. Manny used to wing it.

    Agreed. But the behaviors amd feedback via interviews sounds like we’re not just flailing, Hard to explain bjt feels different to me than the past.

    Plenty is different - first class that had covid full cycle, so they’re late getting out to visit places. But we also have new coaches with recruiting reputations, and maybe manny’s learned something. Not making a prediction, because anything can happen, but feels to me like the staff is...
