This is certainly good news to say the least - did you see the 'Power 5' schools where others are headed ? - in addition to the Luth, we need dynamic coaches to attract better student-athletes across the board to get this whole program turned around - I think we have one in Lapicki and I'll add Chesney as a likely given his dynamism. From there, I don't know but we'll soon find out.
