Please tell the Board how CMY, or any HC, can predict whether any recruit
will stay 3-4 years, or will look for something elsewhere for whatever reason. Name any ACC program and let's look at how many players from each team have left in that HC's tenure. Rice and Buchanan left because their HS coach, an assistant at VT, took a new job at Md. No other nefarious reasons. They followed him back to DC. Did CMY not hit a homerun hiring M. Jones? Yep. Not all assistant hires work out. But players leave programs for a variety of reasons, and this "CMY needs to work on retention" is BS!!
Of course losing those two have had an obvious effect on this year's squad, but you plan for the players you have and those two left before there was any chance of finding Portal replacements. "It's reality, Greg".
