This One Stat Said All That Needs to Be Said

Post by Donman » March 15th, 2013, 8:36 am

Ben Clifford was the player with the most experience on the team last night. Look at all of the players that were out there, only two were on the team last year. Neither was a significant contributor.

We can criticize the recent recruiting. But not to long ago, people on the board were saying how our recruiting had gone to the next level with Davis, Bair and Bradshaw. Utah went after Bair, Montana the number one team in the Big Sky immediately picked Bradshaw up (yes I know we should be better than that, but it still shows that people thought he was a baller). Doc was getting Pac 12 offers.

Remember the two players counseled out after last year, were last minute recruits because Arnold and Bumpus had injuries or personal problems. They would have been out there tonight.

Sean Harris was considered a great get (I believe we beat out the Y for him).

Remember how we were 14-1 and everyone was (I can't express myself without swearing)? I for one missed being 14-1.

Looking forward to having Medlin back, Davis playing on two good ankles, Butterfield not having to play with a hip injury.

A disappointing season yes. But when you consider that your two most experienced players were Clifford and Stone that helps put things in perspective. Looking forward to a great season next year. :utah: :state:

A frustrating year, but these guys really played their hearts out. Here's to the MWC and the Aggies being healthy next year!
