100%! The portal strategy has to change. Chatted with a HS coach who said kids that would have been Valley type players are going unnoticed because rosters are packed with transfers. Ours is one of them.IMO, Foster and Kinziger have shown themselves to be consistent, competitive D1 caliber players. The rest of the roster is an assemblage of individuals who occasionally might have a good game, but never on a consistent basis. It many ways the roster construction reminds me of Wardle’s early Bradley years. It will take a while to field the team we want, if it can be done at all. Players who saw little action at their prior D1 schools will not have an immediate impact on our success. Witness Davis, Kasubke, Lieb, etc. Therefore perhaps we should look at proven D2 transfer portal players.
