Agreed. These kids aren't blind or stupid. The numbers game is a big part of the decision process.
I always want more but I'm cautiously optimistic with what we have.

Penn has now lost a generational player and has not replaced him with a player of similar pedigree. Based only on publicly available information, they seem to have taken a variety of tacks on the trail and none of them have worked. I don't know what the path forward is, but I continue to find that the argument that the recruiting strategy is insufficient bears out in reality.
Actually, MLL had more and better HM offers than Brodeur, and he was a 4* ESPN recruit compared to a 3* Rivals/ESPN recruit for Brodeur. If we are speaking strictly about "pedigree" and recruiting successes, I think MLL arguably ranks higher.

Great to see the high quality recruit for PWB per Asia.
I guess the question on men's side is, who is left that we are we recruiting at this point? I haven't watching as closely as I have in the past, but I'm not seeing many, if any mention of Penn offers on social media and verbal commits doesn't have much left on our radar.

Does that mean we have to start calling the men's team PMB?

Can the women have their own thread? I’m not interested in that. Just like I’m not interested in men’s football. As long as it’s clearly marked, that’s great, have as many threads as you want.

Does Hunger like the Wolverines?

Great hire for them, in my opinion. Juan Howard seems like a very promising coach.
