I am starting to get in the old man, get off my lawn, NIL killed mid major basketball camp.
But if I were getting paid 1.5 million and trying not to pile up 20 loss seasons, I would be all in on trying to build a roster this off season.
So the question is, are we going to sign players on hope (guys like gw3 and AP) that have not produced at D1 level, are not plus athletes that can at least provide defense and physicality, or are we going to try to get dudes in the portal this off season. Or are we just paying lip service on contacting every portal entry (playing long game, "see we tried" and depending on freshman). Will say, looking at SDSU, they actually have been building well on HS recruits, BUT getting raided badly (Magoon Gwath this year). If the long game starts paying off in two years, you definitely will get raided.
So, really need to sign some dudes in this portal.
