In response to Brian Martin
I'm not saying there's not a difference, merely that Robinson benefitted this year from a top of Miller's recruiting cycle that he seems to get no credit for. Put another way, Miller inherited a Dunphy cycle at its peak with only Grandieri behind it having all-Ivy potential and Robinson inherited a Miller cycle a year away from its peak with McAndrew and Huffman this year and Skrelja and Friske next year having all-Ivy potential.
Straight up, would Brown trade either Skrelja or Friske for any of Penn's juniors? What about for all of Penn's juniors?
Why not just acknowledge Miller left a pretty full cupboard. If you think Robinson did more with it than Miller would have, fine, you should support the coach you have over the one you don't, but Robinson wasn't starting from scratch and he still has the luxury next year of not having to rely too much on his underclassmen.
