I hope this is a good pick up but I also have a hard time getting excited about high school players anymore. At the very least its someone to fill one of the 6 spots that's were available. The silence around WSU hoops about recruiting is quite concerning and at this point im hoping they can pull a few (5) rabbits out of the proverbial hat or else its going to be a long damn hoops season.
Old's please give me a legit reason I should be excited at this point about the upcoming basketball campaign.
I understand your concern. I think we all feel a little anxiety over the recruiting process in the era of the portal and the COVID pandemic ripple. Things are taking their due course and we will start to see more commitments over the next few weeks. Yes, we need players, but we need the right players and not just a warm body to fill a seat on the bench. If that is all you are going to get then you might as well leave those seats empty. Let's face it, 8 or 9 players are going to get the majority of time, the 10th and 11th guys will see some time, and the 12th and 13th players will see only garbage time. Often, the last one or two on the bench will RS. It is a very competitive situation. We are only one or two players away from being right back at the top. I feel that the BSC will be more competitive than ever next year.
I love sports and I love WSU. I've loved it even in the really bad years and we haven't had many of those recently. I'm not the one to give you a reason to support our Wildcats because I've never needed a reason. You will make the right choice for you. I'll like you either way.
