[QUOTE="AUFC, post: 923758, member: 3230"] I wouldn’t say never for Tech. You can look at a program like Rutgers that has a lot of parallels to Tech. They bring in Steve Pikiell from Stony Brook for pennies on the dollar having not made the tournament in 2.5 decades. Their facilities are atrocious. He turns the program around in 2019, they sell out a raucous RAC (and win) against ranked rival Seton Hall and the place hasn’t been empty since that game, is now referred to as the Trapezoid of Terror, and is one of the toughest places for opponents to win and one of the hottest tickets on secondary markets. I think Pikiell is on record saying their home court is probably close to a 15 point swing per game due to the energy on defense and loss of composure by opponents on offense. A huge run in the middle of the second half pretty much salted away their game against ranked Indiana this past Saturday. They have a Top 50 recruit coming in next season and are about to start funneling all the best kids in NYC into their program (poor Syracuse). One of the biggest differences is when we were finally good, fans didn’t get to experience it live. They channeled an 80s RAC reincarnation that mirrors our failed attempt at reviving the Thrillerdome. The fan interest simply isn’t there and our only recruiting hook at Tech is that you get a good degree and you get a shot at the UNCs and Dukes who didn’t offer you. [/QUOTE]
