In response to Greenhorn
What gives? This was the premier program in the league for 25 years.
The most obvious reason why Dartmouth lost its perch as the premier WBB program is that urban areas are no longer the death traps that they were in the 1970s-90s. It was easy to convince a female recruit and/or her parents to come to safe Hanover instead of crime-ridden NYC, New Haven, Philly, Providence, Boston/Cambridge, etc.
Not nearly as easy anymore...
If we could build a time machine, we should have tried to find a way to keep Courtney Banghart and given Wielgus some sort of cushy promotion. I wonder how things would have played out if that had happened...
