But what will help recruiting more?

Going somewhere other than an hour away up 33 to recruit players anymore.

Some kid in South Carolina or Texas won't give a rat's @55 fiami and Akron both got in and Ohio didn't. It would actually make us look worse that two teams got in and we were not one of them.
This is dumb. You don't think it matters to kids from out of state if the conference they're being recruited to can get two teams into the tournament? They want to play in the tournament; two teams increases their odds of doing so.

Leon and Monroe, I guess you missed the point where I said Miami had a lot of things go against them! Given all that not many teams are gonna beat them trying to score 80 or 90 points. But if you keep it under 70 and they don’t play well, I still say you have a better chance of beating them.

Seems almost an a priori truth to me!
