In response to mrjames
I am curious as to your thoughts regarding the reasons why a team like Princeton had considerable success last year with only two 3 star recruits, Cannady and Bell. It is possible, but less likely, that Penn will have a great run this year without top rated H.S. players. Is it just a function of certain players being missed in the rating process, good coaching/player development, simply luck, level of competition, etc or a combination of all?
Last year's Tigers team finished undefeated in league play even with losing two starters prior to league play. Were the stars simply aligned? If they have a very successful year this year with a somewhat different group, why from an analytics perspective?
I have some theories but it is based on eye tests vs. analytics. Thoughts, suggestions??
