ALL schools' talent will cycle. In small schools the cycles will be more pronounced, even without declining enrollment being a factor. Declining enrollment not only serves to amplify the down cycle, but could also prolong it.
Hoxie had an incredible run of talent (coupled with outstanding coaching--which includes Coach Porsh) through much of the 90's into the early 00's. To think that such a depth and width of talent would continue indefinitely in a school the size of Hoxie while also suffering from declining enrollment is, at best, unrealistic.
Two things I have learned in my many years is that (1) we should spend more time enjoying the moment and (2) over time, "it" all averages out.
Hoxie will be back.
