...so when we took a team that lacked it from the year before and brought back most of the team, developed that nucleus for a full off-season, fostered that chemistry and added some critical pieces from the portal to plug talent/skill gaps I don't see it as we "over-performed." If anything the team the previous year underperformed due to a lack of chemistry.

We bring back some of that chemistry from last year with Dallin, Trevin, Trey, Fouss, Dawson (a sukosh), Richie and Tripp and add some talented pieces from the portal and via HS ranks. These same guys did a great job last year working with the newbies to the program to foster the growth of chemistry in the off-season and they certainly still know how to do that again this off-season.
