What do we want for our men’s basketball program

With our facilities and resources (and leaves), we shouldn't be the ranked as 8th best job in this league - I think it just shows that the expectations for lil ole Richmond have been beaten down by what has been accomplished by CFL in the last 20 years.
 
Idk about you guys, I’d coast for 21 years and win the bare minimum of games after making a huge ncaa tournament run. Would’ve put us up higher. Who wouldn’t want to be a millionaire and know they could lose every meaningful game in a season and still keep you job. Heck, even some will praise you.
 
Yep seems like different criteria could be at play for each respondent. I have hard time as to why GW would be high, unless someone is a fan of the city. But they seem like they have a huge lack of fans and lack of interest.
 
I want recruits who are ready to play game 1. I want more athletes on the floor. Less substitutions. Dominant guard play. Starters who are so good, you know they will clearly be our starters. Versatile role players. Some great shooters. Leaders. Some great defensive players. Guys who will always give great effort.

A good OOC schedule every year. A team talented enough that looks like it could be top 4 A-10 and capable of winning the A-10 tourney every year. A team with great chemistry who gets better and better with each game. No terrible, below .500 A-10 seasons so our good years top 4 A-10 and bad years .500 A-10.

Lack of accountability should boost UR to a higher position, but I’m guessing weighting is not in play.
 
Good stuff 4700. I do like how you have "more athletes on the floor" near the top. Our guys look pretty athletic vs top 300 rated teams, but when we step in competition can see a disparity. And tha affects everything, ability to defend, get open, create offense off the dribble, rebound. I would take two Kevin Smiths on the team every year , he could impact the game in so many ways.

You are on a generational run. Keep this going
 
I think/hope we're trying to move toward being a more athletic team. I haven't seen enough of McGlothin but AA, Harper and JRob appear more athletic than our typical players. hopefully incoming freshmen are too.
