I respect what Delaware State is building, but let me tell you, that's the only way it's ever been done. We built our best Lakers teams in the NEC the same way, with kids who bled green and stayed for the fiht. These portal mercenaries have no idea what it means to wear the same helmet for four years. You're right, that foundation matters, and it's how you pull off those upsets that nobody sees coming. I remember our 2005 team that shocked the conference, all homegrown talent. Good luck to you folks in the MEAC, it's good to see someone still values the old-school approach.
