I don’t know if it is choice or circumstances. But they could have signed 3 (rather than 2) in the fall with the assumption that someone would transfer – especially considering that we have had a transfer a year for the past 4 years. Seems like a relatively safe assumption. And if BA doesn’t leave, it’s not as though we are over the limit and running someone off. That would still only be 12 scholarships for 17-18. That’s what I mean by not adjusting to the new reality.
Now we are forced to sign someone (two) from a dwindling pool of prospects that everyone else is desperately sorting through. With the downside being entering a season woefully shorthanded and the upside being getting lucky with a late bloomer that no one else has noticed? Dangerous.
