we can never get our very good recruits on the same team at the same time.... There is always a gap and we seem to miss Greatness by one year of a kid being on a mission it seems. The new mission age will allow Rose to start lining up his recruits AND allowing them to have continuity playing together instead of playing together for a year as a freshman in one or both players cases and then possibly not playing together for three more years or worse. and when and if those tow players do play together it is often for only one year with one of them dusting off mission legs, so again no time to get continuity, which without lottery pick talent at all positions..is needed to win in b ball.
