We have never gotten the Skenes and Tanks. You act as if we didn't try to pay for them. For whatever reason, the upper tier proven players simply don't gravitate to MSU. Even in baseball, our prime targets over the years have been the 4 star types (if using the football methodology) and a few 5 stars here or there that have an issue (for instance, Bednar having an arm injury in high school).
We have a coach. Our facility is also fine. Boosters are in place. To go to the next level, we need our fans to come out, all year long (not just against SEC teams). We may not have an elite basketball culture, but we also do not have an absence of one. We absolutely can win a national title in that sport.
