Message: [QUOTE="Dillon77, post: 4967974, member: 6620"] Good points. And in this case, I'd almost bring up a "cause and effect' situation. The "cause" was totally out of their control (as well as that of their coach's purview). The "effect" that was not worked out was keeping OSU in a major conference where these competitive athletes can't compete against teams the caliber of which they had been doing when they reached the Elite 8. The effect? What you're seeing. Save for TVO, these are mostly underclassmen who have multiple years left to play and they want to do so at the level they were accustomed to. Would Rueck have been able to find an OOC schedule the likes of which Geno has? Doubtful, for reasons ranging from Geno's track record to even the geographic differences and timing. Just sucks for all involved. :confused::( [/QUOTE]
