You're talking about development like it's some secret sauce only your staff has. Every team in this league is grinding on fundamentals in the spring, that's not unique. The real difference is talent, and you're ignoring the fact your "development" narrative only works because you're playing against other. The portal isn't a craze, it's modern roster management, and programs that ignore it get left behind. Your consistency is just a fancy word for stagnation. You think because you beat a few teams with more transfers that your way is superior, but it just means you had a good day. The "build from within" model has a hard ceiling, and we've seen it year after year. When you finally step up in competitin, that "edge" evaporates because your guys haven't faced the same caliber of athlete week in and week out. Your coaching staff isn't getting poached, they're comfortable in a league where that philosophy can still limp along. Winning the conference? Based on spring clips? That's pure fantasy. We'll see whose "process" holds up when the pads come on for real and you need playmakers, not just technicians.
