I just had to post about some really bad luck that happened to UNC in Knight. They just lost 3 EE:

#30 on draft board - Robert Bliss, JR - On the fence
#31 on the draft board - Kyle Frost, FR - Staying
#34 on the draft board - Richard Wickham, SO - Likely staying

How do you prepare for something like this situation? Or even reasonably expect to lose a 'likely staying' and a 'staying' in the same offseason?

You're missing someone if I am not mistaken.

Correct....but in real-life UNC's recruiting budget isn't limited to how many scholarships they're going to have open at the end of the season from SRs and walk-ons, so they can continue to recruit and sign players when guys do declare.

Read the conference chat; my mistake. Makes me happy I am not in D1 when things like that happen lol.

plenty of threads on this issue - waiting for change in announcement timing on which WIS says they are working for months.

hard to predict multiple stated to be unlikely guys leaving - just a bunch of very bad dice rolls - by which i mean that "staying" no doubt means say 5% chance he goes...etc

Or, at the very least, know how EE works by now.

You sure do post a lot and I've noticed it's usually a very snarky comment to boot.

Is it snark to reply to snark with snark? Snark squared?
