That's true. Utah's success has been despite having the worst of all worlds.

Can you give me examples of other regional schools with no natural recruiting base that sustained long term success in college basketball? I'm afraid for you the gig was up when the fat man left.

Utah's basketball tradition spans many coaches and over seventy years (unlike BYU's football tradition). The proof is Street and Smith's ranking the Utes no. 11 all-time. They are "regional" in your mind only because you say so, and in this, as in your other posts, you are demonstrating your propensity for self-dellusion and believing your own bullshit against all reason and the objective evidence.

Unless you can find a coach to recruit nationally, you're out of luck. But you have no edge on any other MWC or WAC team. |

Majerus was actually bad for you in this regard because he pissed off a lot of Utah high school coaches and ignored Utah/LDS fan base (because he could). But now that that's dry and you don't have a nationally recognized coach, it might be tough for you. I think you have a stronger destiny in football where you can at least expect to be upper middle MWC.
