Quote from Dwight LeRoy's post:

"Is Jake Ryan the plan to be the starter for the next 4 years or is tOSU looking at let's say top 20 HS recruit type talent to solidify that weight? Nothing against Jake but I don't see the offense needed to be a AA and score points at the NCAA Championships. I hope I'm wrong."



Jake Ryan was not a D1 caliber recruit coming out of high school and basically spent the last two years learning how to compete at this level (he deferred college enrollment for a year) Last night, as a redshirt frosh, he beat a solid opponent. While he is not likely to ever be an offensive juggernaut, his defense is stout and he is coming off a very good redshirt season. If you placed his improvement on a graph, it's a line moving steadily upward with no end in sigh.

I don't know the Bucks long range plan for this spot but I doubt Tom Ryan would back off landing an excellent recruit if one was available. At the same time, I think the staff believes Jake Ryan will only get better and is reasonably comfortable with the idea of him in the lineup moving forward.

Justin: 2002 or 2003...Minnesota were National Champions with 10 AAs and zero finalists. Pretty sure that's correct.

2001, Mark. The year Tommy Rowlands lost the coin flip to John Lockhart.

And you're right: 10 AA/0 Finalists.
