I've been wondering the last couple of days if:
The next two years of our recruiting is the most critical for the future of the program since the signing of the Paris twins?
Of course, recruiting every year is critical for every program.
It seems to me, however, that OU may be nearing a crossroads.
We have nice prospects coming in, but there seems to be plenty of uncertainty about how good the three soon to grace our court will be.
In 2014 we lose Aaron, Nicole, Morgan and Portia. With the exception of Portia, that's been the guts of this program for a long time.
Following the loss of Hand and Jo, and even with Maddie, Sharane and Kornet still on the rost for a couple of years, the next couple of recruiting years seems to be at the critical potential tipping point.
Adding to the situation is the lack of any seriously good recruiting news and the strong possibility we may not sign anyone this fall.
All in all, it seems to be a very highly uncertain near future for the coaches, program and players. I don't lack cofidence in the coaches recruiting ability, but then again, maybe I do a bit based upon the last couple of years (Maddie and Kornet giving solice to my concern.)
I can't think of a time since the twins where our future has been this much in flux. What do all of you think about this?
