All good points, thank you! Just my 2 ¢....I remember ND BB in the Austin Carr era. The 70's & 80's

decades were ND basketball and football was flying high. It was Hesburgh that didn't want ND to be regarded as a "jock institution" - his vision was ND to be the "Harvard" of the Midwest. So, one of those sports had to go - naturally, they decided to neuter the BB program starting in the 90's and it been mediocre at best since then.
