Slysyl: IMO and just my thoughts, i believe that while Dayton was bungling around with Head Coach Jim O'Brien, other schools in the area were getting stronger. It was a period of lost time and space. Recruits, fans and the news media forgot what we had been and only knew what O'Brien created. While O'Brien was chasing 4 and 5 star recruits that he never landed, the other schools were nailing down all the good landable 3 star recruits. So, when O'Brien finally gave up on his first choice, he could only recruit what was left. It was like a desert stripped of all the landable recruits. O'brien seemed like a decent x and o coach but recruitmg was not his forte. (Well, i am being too rosey in my memory. Maybe it was even worse than that!)
