I know you addressed this to JMVCAJUNS, but I feel like responding.
There is no timetable for Gerry. His standards are high and he makes tremendous efforts towards reaching his goal. He only has one goal and that is to win a national championship. It was necessary for him to take the path he is on because if he had not kept the program at it's current high level (top 25 rpi, competitive with elite programs, dominating the conference, making and being competitive in regionals), it would have put him so far behind the curve that he would never have gotten there. Bringing in high quality transfers, upgrading the schedule (2020), all the other things he has done have kept this program in a position to have a legitimate chance of being in the running for the national championship within the next 3-4 years.
Gerry now has his recruiting classes coming in. He could not get his recruits here earlier because elite level players commit after their freshmen seasons and they do not typically change their minds once they have committed. They cannot now make it official until their senior seasons, but most top level players know where they are going well in advance of their senior seasons. The key for Gerry is now to make sure the quality of the schedule matches the quality of the players he has recruited. There is a reason why regional hosts normally advance to super regionals. I am looking forward to seeing what Gerry is able to do after his collaboration with Brian. The 2022 schedule should be very interesting.
There will be quite a few question marks about the overall strength of this team for 2022. If the schedule is strong and they have success against it, hosting a regional is a distinct possibility, thus a chance to advance to supers. But 2022 WILL lay the foundation for a run to the national championship. I'm looking forward to February.
It’s no doubt Coach Glasco can recruit talent. The talent has to buy into the program and each other. They seem very quiet in the dugout. If he can get them verbally invested during the games by cheering for one another, I believe emotion would take us to the rest of the way.
Vic you do realize no one wants to fire him the question when do we get on him heck Deggs has been here two years and people are already calling him out without complaint from this board. That's the question even if I wanted him fired which I don't I have no power or say so in that. In Maggard I trust.
