I read that Blaudscun blog post about the BC coach building for the future, but it seems like he can only recruit Ivy-level talent. It took him 10 years and having a 7 footer project fall in his lap to have success at Cornell. Not a recipe for success even in the current ACC.
My bad, "lower-tier Ivy level talent" may be more accurate.To have "Ivy level" talent they would have to beat Ivy league teams on a regular basis....no?
