In response to CM
I have wondered about recruiting to a Boudreaux scenario though. Graduate in 3 and then go play elsewhere. Try to sell kids on a world where they can have it all. Get the Ivy degree, be a big fish in a small basketball pond for a couple of years, then get a big NIL deal and play big time college basketball for a year or two.
We’re not going to get talented enough players to compete nationally with one and done kids (one Malik Mack or Tyler Perkins wasn’t enough for that). But we might be able to compete if we have those types of talents for 2-3 years.
For better or worse, the combination of Covid, Ivy grad rules, and the transfer portal led to a full cycle of kids who got to do both, and now you have kids behind them who saw older teammates do both. Natural that that might lead to more kids wanting to transfer and play at a higher level.
