If Austin is charged with being a primary option 'gate is in a world of trouble with this years upcoming team.

Hard to imagine the aforementioned are blaming Langel. C'mon, guys. If you've watched the last four years, the strides the teams has made since Emmitt left have been monumental. Although the W column is still lacking, the Langel teams are better. The whole Patriot League is better. Look up the league ranking.....in the middle of the D1 pack. Why the recruits don't come.....good question. With the players Langel has had, Boeheim wouldn't have won more games. And transfers? If you can't get freshmen, what's the alternative?

Hey "Hoopie" I thought you were supposed to get freshmen...and stating that the strides under Langel have been "monumental" is something more than a stretch, don't you think? This year looks like a poor one at best and we don't build our teams with transfers. My strong guess is that by the time Langel leaves Colgate his record will be worse than Emmitt Davis'...and I'm not totally dissing Langel either...coaching hoops at The Gate is no easy chore and let's leave it at that...

Yep, freshman should be the first choice, but I remember a couple transfers who now have their names hanging from the rafters at the Cot. Hey, careful what you wish for.
