I'm not going to repeat the same song and dance about the day 1 performance that has been outlined already.

I do want to touch on this though...Whoever handles scheduling better damn well be on the phones with schools like Nebraska, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Ohio State, etc to get some tougher schools on the schedule. Enough of these D2-D3-Junior Colleges. The home schedule this year was terrible and we hear from the program how fans need to show up....well you better have some good teams on the schedule to get the non-diehards to show up. I know covid and what not hurt us not being able to see ASU which would have been a great one.

Next you have to have these guys going to big name tourneys. It's obvious they simply don't handle tournaments the same way they handle duals. Best to see that early in the season and get it corrected.

Dresser and Co. are one of the higher paid staffs in the nation, they have the resources at their disposal (not like PSU, Iowa, Ohio State, Oklahoma St) but they do have some dang good ones. They have missed on some early recruiting but they found their groove here lately which is very promising. There is no reason we can't become a top 6-8 team consistently and make moves towards trophies.
These are all good points - I hope to see some adjustments in scheduling next season to really build up the incoming talent.

Can David still face Willits? I want to see him just destroy that a-hole.

I'd hate to be on the back side of 157 now, with Carr there. Sheets, Kaleb Young... Speaking of which: any predicts on team title at this point? It looks fairly certain it's not going to be Iowa. PSU or Mich, I'm thinking.
