If M&D DC is going to prove its recruiting record it should try and keep Stone Ridge players that will get recruited by the new director regardless. That will help PR and marketing and help convince more to come in the future but if you cant keep SR girls from going to Capital you have no shot at convincing anyone else.

For instance, Capital does 0 recruiting for SSSAS girls...that is all done through the school.

Why is that the case? Interesting

I was really hoping we'd get to see the 2022 class, it's so relevant to now. Jim Jones had nothing on the Cap cult.

Would be great if we can get the Capital Orange list added for years 2023-2026.

a life that did not exist when they were on here every day telling 29s to stay at M&D DC? ahhh I see now they are too busy. got it!

Or they have a life. (shade excitement felt)

Classic FOMO

I agree that no one is being persuaded and I think the original poster that was convinced that all the 29s were staying at M&D DC has also quieted down.

That any of you think you’re convincing the other (or any 29s monitoring this forum for that matter) is hilarious. You’re talking to each other. No one is being persuaded. That excitement you feel when you hit send on shade post? You’re the only one experiencing it.

lets pretend you are right and it is slipping.....i would have to do a whole lot of slipping before it ever got close to the next best option in this area. Only better option than Capital is Heros and M&D...period.

Coppermine is now a viable option. You can point out that their recruiting history has been subpar but they also have not had the talent until now. This will start changing with the 27's and 28's.

I would say probably just the 27’s. If the schools are significantly weaker than the 26’s, you can begin to draw a trend line.

One year is a "trend line"? Interesting. You must not do data science for a living.

Could start at 24’s

i suppose we could but then that would ruin everyone's opinion that it is on the decline....
