Stanford WBB have had a McD now 8 years in a row

We also have a coach that can get the most out of its talent, including a national championship two years ago.

BC

Helps that said talent is top 3 in the nation at worst.

(MBB's is...uh...not. There are NINE 3* players on the roster.)

Thought experiment: Imagine that Haase was fired two weeks before the first game of the season and Mike Montgomery agreed to be the interim coach for the rest of the season. What would the team's record be at this point, and what would you imagine the overall record for the season would turn out to be?

My guess is that this team would be at least 12-8 and maybe a 4-3 conference record, and I could imagine fighting to finish around the middle of the conference.

Nothing wrong with 3* players. 1987-88 roster: Lichti, Wright, Butler, Taylor, McSweeney, Bruton, Meinert, Vlahov, Thomas, Wingate, Cunningham, Patrick, Meyer, Booker, Winkes. Looking retrospectively, Lichti was a 5. Vlahov was a 4 for his EUTM. No one else looks like above a 3. And they went 21-12 including 11-7 in conference.
