“St Thomas men’s basketball could build a perennial winner at the D-I level … with mostly local athletes”
https://www.twincities.com/2020/07/1...mpression=true......“You talk about programs that are trying to make the transition, there are very few that are in as good of a position as St. Thomas,” Prep Hoops national analyst Ryan James said. “I think it’s in a fantastic position, because of who the head coach is, because of the location, because of the support system and because of the hunger for basketball in Minnesota. I think they’re in a fantastic position to have quick success.”
The talent pool with which Tommies head coach John Tauer has to recruit is deep. Minnesota has grown into a hoops hotbed over the past decade. James said the state’s high school Class of 2022 is probably going to produce more Division-I players than it ever has before......
The men’s team was 26-3 (19-1) last season.
19 man roster (don’t know how they do that? - D3? - iirc 15 is the limit at D1, 13 schollies + 2 walk-ons)
Of the 19, 10 are metro recruits, 7 out-of-state - and 2 out-state MN

I think they will do well pretty quickly but 26-3 in D3 means a while lot of nothing in D1 to me. Also recruiting a team of D3 talent all from your state is way easier than fielding a D1 team all from your state.
But ALL the good athletes do come from Minneapolis just ask Lakes. (sorry, had to, to easy)
