Look what Drake has done with an entirely new roster and numerous Division II transfers.  Kids coming up a level have much to prove.  It may not always be true but we have had more success with players coming from lower levels.

Drake hasn't had to endure the nightly fist fight at the Big Ten level of competition, either. If they progress deep into the NCAA tourney then I'll give them their due props.

Hey Cazzie, I did a poor job of responding to the idea of your original comment. I actually do agree with what you're saying. The point that I was trying to make is that with the Big Ten level of competition you have to recruit Big Ten levels of ability and athleticism. Some lower level guys have those abilities, but the competition to recruit them is pretty darn fierce.

Agree.  But at 30-3 they might give some teams problems.

Yes, depending on the match-up they could go deep. 

 

Problem is I've seen them matched-up with teams like Louisville in that first round - which would cause them fits.
