No need for MH to pull recruiting magic out of his behind--if he can maintain at SJ's level we'll be fine.



Possibly, although I have a hunch that one of the reasons Johnson departed was that he wasn't sure he'd be able to maintain the level of talent that he had enjoyed to that point. I'll also point out that no Princeton coach-- not Carril, not Carmody, not Thompson, certainly not Scott and not Johnson-- has succeeded in the league without superior athletes ( the 'system' notwithstanding).

(If you think about it, Scott kind of throws all this thinking into a cocked hat. He actually managed to fail spectacularly in the conference, with the purest variant of the system since the 80's, despite having tremendous athletes. Go figure.)
