In response to HARVARDDADGRAD
In fairness, these boards were dominated a few years ago by discussions of how Harvard was going to basically Gonzaga-ize the IL given Amaker's next-level recruiting and Harvard's resources, etc. Some of us were skeptical (though impressed: and I am heartily glad not to have to worry about the likes of Curry and Saunders any more) and received a bit of guff for it.
The rising tide theory partly explains why the dominance scenario didn't play out as some expected, with other schools turning up more highly ranked recruits than they used to get. But the can-only-play-five-at-a-t ime effect, the rankings-are-helpful-but- very-imperfect predictors effect, and the player-development-matter s-a-lot effect have also played roles.
