 Not only is Coach Wojcik bringing is prep talent, the other key that should fuel success for San Jose State University basketball is the ceilings his signees possess.

One aspect that stifled past opportunities for advancement in Spartan hoops was the bringing in of prospects who either had already reached their potential or were close to that barrier. Thus, be it a high school or junior college recruit, very little was ever witnessed in skills improvement.

Now at least there is the sense that the new SJSU basketballers carry the capacity to get better as the clock ticks in their college hoops tenure.

But it also must be noted that each of the four new signees has an out-of-state address so the recruiting purse strings currently are looser than ever before. That was a necessary adjustment for any chance to move upward.
