Dayton can compete with those cities.
Still a very real scanario as to why kids don't come to UD. Combine that with a very distinguished academic institution and another very real issue being in the A10.Can't compare our situation to Syracuse with them being in the ACC and Texas Tech the BIG 12. Not saying UD can't, and won't, get bigger and better players, though. AG off to a great start with Cohill. In BB, all it takes is a couple of studs to fall in love with your program and a real foundation can build.

With Gonzaga, since the 2000-2001 season, 23 players have joined the Zags on transfer as either regular or graduate transfers. During that same time span, the Zags have had 95 players on their rosters, meaning transfer players have made up just over 24 percent of all players in Mark Few’s tenure as head coach (not including the 1999 season). Add those transfers in with other pretty good players fairly close to Gonzaga who don't want to go to Oregon or Washington and you can see how the program can build..

I've scratched my head plenty of times as to "why" isn't UD more consistently on par with those schools you mentioned and others as far as getting bigger, faster, stronger and better players..
