All good questions. I don't know if we can get over the hump. For now I give Skerry some credit for keeping a roster intact in a climate where nobody stays at the same school or has any sort of loyalty to a program. It seems like a testament to the culture he has built, the players he has recruited, and if they feel like the environment is a match for them. Who knows what the experience will ultimately mean, as we need the players to get better to go where we want to go. How that happens is important.
Bark Torvig has a table for returning minutes and returning possession minutes.
The returning minutes group above 80% includes: 1. Navy 92.1%, 2. Northern Arizona 84.6%, 3. Wofford 84.3%, 4. Notre Dame 83.9%, 5. Towson 82.1%, 6. Gonzaga 81.4%, 7. American 81.4%, 8. Columbia 80.9%, 9. Boston University 80.1%.
The returning possession minutes includes: 1. Navy 92.1%, 2. Wofford 86.9%, 3. Northern Arizona 86.5%, 4. Notre Dame 86.4%, 5. Gonzaga 80.2%, 6. Columbia 79%, 7. Towson 78.5%, 8. NC A&T 77.9% (this surprised me), 9. Boston University 77.3%, 10. American 76.8%
