Chemistry is great and all, but you can't win the Southland with just good vibes. We've seen what happens when you rely solely on "guys who stayed" against teams that aggressively reload. Our staff hit the portal hard for a reason, to add immediate playmakers at key spots. You need difference-makers, not just system guys. That locker room chemistry you're praising didn't stop us from putting up points last season, and it won't stop us this year either. We're building something real here, blending our core with elite transfers who want to be Cardinals. While you're celebrating reention, we're adding game-breakers who are buying in just as fast. Spring grind matters, but so does fall production. We'll see whose approach works better on the scoreboard. I'll take our mix of loyalty and new talent every time.
